		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Snowflake is being used across our whole organization. It addresses the need to combine disparate data sources into one single data source and discover insights into our business that would not be easily possible with lots of disconnected data sources. It has great SQL features like LISTAGG or Count Distinct, which go above and beyond Oracle and MS SQL. - Reporting queries run in a fraction of the time that they would in our production systems - We can run simple SQL queries. - Scales up and down seamlessly - Optimized table structures under the hood - Sharing data between accounts - Easy if use - Continuous data pipelines - Snowflake also includes caching at various levels to help speed up your queries and minimum costs. - Support members are very good. Snowflake is acting as a company-wide Data Repository. With its cloud architecture and scalability, it addresses our storage, warehouse, and computation problem at the same time. Snowflake has powerful group roles and policy, which makes it beneficial for enterprise edition and usage. Snowflake acts as a single platform for both data storage and warehousing needs. For deployment purposes, it has the best group policy management and the best UI I've encountered personally. It also accommodates direct connection with AWS and Azure, which is another advantage. - Hosted on cloud: Helps with scalability. - Handling large data scale and ingestion - Separation of compute and storage - Community is active and ever-growing: You will have someone from the community to help whenever you need it. Simple & clean interface Great querying performance Integration with all the major cloud providers Easy to learn querying language Good documentation (+) Easy to adapt and easy to use. (+) The run time of queries is much faster compared to other products in the market. (+) One can select a part of a query for execution. (+) Integration with S3 and other data storage platforms makes snowflake more compatible. (+) One may run concurrent queries without giving up on speed. Cons Nothing to dislike in Snowflake. Awesome data warehouse for huge data set. - Very expensive - Indexing by primary key is non performant Web based IDE is not suitable for writing complex queries, it feels sluggish when heavily used. (-) Performance drops in the case of multiple users. (-) No option for scheduling of a task or a query. (-) The coding syntax has some restrictions like the case-sensitivity issue.
