Agenda Day 1

9:30 AM Adapting to the New Normal with Snowflake's Cloud Data Platform

The onset of COVID-19's "new normal" has had a huge effect on every organisation. From a data and analytics perspective, it has highlighted the constraints of legacy thinking, the importance of operational agility and, in many cases, accelerated the need to leverage the cloud. But rather than simply porting existing architectures to the cloud, let's first consider what a true cloud data platform looks like. 

 

In this session, Snowflake will share their expertise in building such architecture, taking you through critical considerations and strategies for migrating to a cloud-based data platform and then leveraging the opportunities offered by such advanced data storage and analytics. This will include scaling without disruption, reducing maintenance overheads and seamlessly sharing data across regions & clouds.

 

Join us to learn:

  • How Snowflake's unique architecture can remove legacy limitations
  • How to easily access analytics-ready datasets via the Snowflake Data Marketplace
  • How to leverage Snowflake's cross-cloud, cross-region replication to ensure data stability & continuity
