Description
Snowflake was written from the ground up to be a novel and advanced cloud data platform provided as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). Snowflake enables data storage, processing, and analytic solutions that are faster, easier to use, and far more flexible than traditional offerings.
In this nearly nine hour course, we talk about how Snowflake is a true SaaS offering. Specifically we address:
– How there is no hardware (virtual or physical) to select, install, configure, or manage.
– How there is virtually no software to install, configure, or manage.
– How maintenance, management, upgrades, and tuning are handled by Snowflake.
– All important aspects of Snowflake
– How Snowflake runs completely on cloud infrastructure. All components of Snowflake’s service (other than optional command line clients, drivers, and connectors), run in public cloud infrastructures.
