Snowflake Featuresfor DXC
Trust
Productize Your IP. Redefine Your Practice.
- Accelerate Client Time-to-Value from Months to Minutes. Deliver turnkey Managed Apps that clients can discover, purchase, and deploy in clicks - eliminating data movement and procurement delays.
- Redefine "Advisory" and Differentiate Your Practice. Go beyond static reports by embedding expertise directly into client workflows for continous, interactive value.
- Decouple Revenue from Headcount and Scale Globally. Productize top solutions into a Managed App to serve unlimited clients, drive recurring revenue and free your top talent to focus on strategic advisory rather than repetitive deployments.
- Win Engagements on a Foundation of Unbreakable Security. Use a "zero-copy" model running inside Snowflake client instances to protect sensitive data and build trust.
Accelerate Client Value with the Snowflake Marketplace
- Go from Data to Insight with Zero Delay. Query live third-party data instantly- no ETL, no replication, no latency.
- Forge Unparalleled Insights by Natively Joining Data. Combine live Marketplace data with sensitive client data inside Snowflake for hyper-contextual models and unique insights.
- Monetize Your IP Without Ever Moving or Copying It. Use Snowflake's "zero-copy" tech to productize benchmarks and analytics, giving clients secure, instant access while scaling revenue.
- Operate on a Single, Unified Governance Plane. Marketplace data inherits your existing security and governance policies eliminating compliance overhead and client risk.
Why Move Data for AI? Deploy Models Directly Where Data Lives.
- Build AI Solutions Without the Trade-offs. Cortex AI is simple (SQL-based), efficient (serverless), trusted, and cost-effective (pay-per-use).
- Accelerate Custom AI Delivery from Months to Days. Use SQL and Python with serverless LLM/ML functions to rapidly prototype and deploy AI, from sentiment analysis to forecasting.
- Unlock AI on Sensitive Data with Unmatched Security. Keep client data inside Snowflake while applying generative AI. No risky API calls and fully compliant for regulated industries.
- Scale Your AI Talent Pool Exponentially. Enable every consultant to build with AI using SQL, democratizing access and reducing reliance on specialized data scientists.
No-Code/Low-Code Data Pipelines: The Openflow Advantage
Radically Accelerate Project Timelines. Connect to any client data source- batch, streaming, structured, or unstructured- and deliver value in days, not months.
- Build a Future-Proof Foundation for AI. Use bi-directional data flows to power LLM's, operationalize models, and build next-gen AI solutions without legacy ETL.
- Maximize Team Productivity and Profitability. Eliminate pipeline management with a fully managed ZeroOps service so teams can focus on models and client solutions.
- Standardize on an Open, Extensible Platform. Rely on open standards and limitless interoperability to integrate with any architecture and reduce vendor lock-in.
