WHY ATTEND

SPEND LESS TIME ON PIPELINES AND MORE TIME DELIVERING INSIGHTS AND AI USE CASES TO YOUR ORGANIZATION.

Insufficient data integration remains a major barrier to digital transformation and AI adoption for organizations. Companies require seamless connectivity across data sources, including data vendors and enterprise systems to build a robust data foundation.

Snowflake has solved this challenge by inherently building connectivity into the platform and making it easy to integrate hundreds of data and SaaS providers via Snowflake Marketplace, allowing data teams to spend less time on pipelines and more time delivering insights and AI use cases to their organizations.

Join this 60-minute session to see how to:

Connect hundreds of external data sources within minutes, not months without the need for copies, reducing storage costs
Have your SaaS providers share live access to your data instead of connecting via SFTP, API or ETL
Ingest data from critical business apps and databases with just a few clicks using pre-built connectors

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Data engineers, IT and data teams looking to create seamless connectivity across data sources, including data vendors and enterprise systems to build a robust data foundation.
