Traditional data platforms and big data solutions often fail to meet their main goal: allowing users to work with data without restrictions on size, speed, or adaptability. Snowflake’s modern cloud-based data warehouse offers benefits for all data professionals, including analysts, scientists, engineers, and business users. Here are the key advantages of moving to Snowflake, the leading cloud data platform:

  • Multi-cluster and shared data: enables fast and efficient processing of large data volumes using multiple clusters simultaneously.

  • Micro-Partitioning: provides secure and efficient data storage with automatic organization.

  • Delivered as a service: eliminates the need for manual administration and management of data infrastructure.

  • Data Platform built for any cloud: separates storage from compute, allowing multiple compute clusters to work on the same data simultaneously.

  • Better Performance and throughput: delivers faster data processing compared to traditional data platforms.

  • Support for all data: processes both structured data and semi-structured formats (JSON, Avro, XML, Parquet) in a single platform.

SnowConvert is a user-friendly tool that helps you modernize your traditional data platform by migrating it to Snowflake’s Data Warehousing Architecture. SnowConvert analyzes your existing SQL code (from platforms like Oracle, SQL Server, and Teradata) and converts it to Snowflake SQL. After conversion, you can immediately take advantage of all Snowflake’s features and capabilities.

Currently, SnowConvert supports converting code from these source platforms:

  • Teradata

  • Oracle

  • SQL Server

  • Sybase IQ

  • Redshift

  • Azure Synapse
