Snowflake Announces New Solution Partner Program

Nov 17, 2016

New program recognizes Snowflake implementation partners for their expertise, offering customers trusted partners to accelerate the benefits of Snowflake.

SAN MATEO, Calif. – Nov. 17, 2016 – Snowflake Computing, the cloud data warehousing company, today announced the launch of its Snowflake Solution Partner Program. This new program recognizes qualified Snowflake partners who have demonstrated the skills and experience to implement solutions that leverage Snowflake technology while providing partners with training, resources, and collaboration to maximize their ability to leverage Snowflake technology.

The Snowflake Solution Partner Program helps Snowflake customers find qualified partners who can work with them to accelerate and maximize the benefits of Snowflake. Snowflake Solution Partners bring expertise in strategies, architectures, design principles, and best practices in big data and data analytics that ensure that customers can rapidly deploy Snowflake to help solve their data analytics challenges.

The Snowflake Solution Partner Program benefits for partners include the following (exact benefits depend on partner qualification type and status):

  • In-depth training on Snowflake technology, use cases, and best practices through Snowflake’s SnowCamp training curriculum.
  • Opportunities for joint marketing with Snowflake including joint branding, joint collateral, and marketing activities.
  • Resources to support implementation and go-to-market efforts.
  • Discounted access to Snowflake products for learning and development purposes.

“Our partners are a key link in helping our customers rapidly integrate Snowflake into their data solutions,” said Walter Aldana, vice president of alliances at Snowflake Computing. “The Snowflake Solution Partner Program allows our partners to demonstrate their skills and expertise, giving customers confidence that they can turn to these partners to accelerate and maximize the value they can achieve using Snowflake.”

“At Telltale we’re constantly evolving and innovating our data solutions. To succeed in that, we need to make sure that we can quickly and optimally deploy new solutions,” said Nate West, director of analytics at Telltale. “Working with a Snowflake Solution Partner helped us rapidly deploy and take full advantage of Snowflake, delivering a solution that accelerated the parsing of the JSON data received from game engines by over 50%.”

Snowflake was founded with the vision of eliminating the barriers to data analytics. Snowflake’s data warehouse built for the cloud delivers the performance, concurrency, and simplicity needed to support today’s diverse data and analytics. It delivers the following innovations and capabilities that define a data warehouse built for the cloud:

  • Complete SQL database – Snowflake supports the tools millions of business users already know how to use today.
  • Zero management – Snowflake reduces complexity with built-in performance so there’s no infrastructure to tweak, no knobs to turn and no tuning required.
  • All of your data – Customers can analyze multiple petabytes of structured and semi-structured data (JSON, XML, AVRO) to quickly extract critical insight.
  • All of your users – An architecturally unlimited amount of concurrent users and applications can gain access without eroding performance thanks to Snowflake’s multi-cluster warehouse technology.
  • Pay only for what you use – Snowflake’s cloud-built solution scales storage separate from compute, up and down, transparently and automatically.
