Real time analytics, in conjunction with a data warehouse, allows users to view, analyze and gain insights from data as it is delivered to an analytics platform. Real-time analytics help agile businesses strengthen marketing and sales synergy, optimize workflows, and react quickly to customer data and market dynamics.

Without access to real-time analytics, businesses run the risk of losing access to data when it is most actionable.

Snowflake and Real Time Analytics

Snowflake can provide near real-time data ingestion, data integration, and querying at industrial scale. For example, the Snowflake Kafka Connector reads data data from one or more Kafka. topics and loads that data into a Snowflake table. That date can then be delivered to a Tableau dashboard within minutes.
