How Snowflake simplifies Data Engineering and drives ROI

Written by DataOps.live | Apr 18, 2024 8:36:41 PM

The ability to leverage data quickly and effectively is essential for businesses to innovate, scale, and lead in their industries today. DataOps.live is at the forefront of this transformative journey, helping organizations unlock the full potential of their data in Snowflake, with unparalleled speed and efficiency at scale. 

Why have we focused exclusively on Snowflake? The recent Forrester study, The Total Economic Impact™ of Snowflake for Data Engineering, makes it clear. It highlights the benefits and cost savings of using Snowflake, underscoring its transformational impact on business.

Read on for a summary of what Forrester says you’ll get when you go with Snowflake.


Accelerate Data Engineer Productivity

A key benefit highlighted in the study is the whopping 66% improvement in data engineering productivity companies get from Snowflake. This leap in efficiency stems from automation capabilities, including data ingestion, micro-partitioning, and storage management. 

By simplifying complex data management tasks, Snowflake enables you to produce higher-quality data and foster improved sharing across teams. This efficiency gain is a game-changer, allowing organizations to reallocate significant time towards innovation and more value-added activities. In fact, the report found that this can lead to more than 13,000 hours of time savings annually (for teams with 10 full-time data engineers).


Double Down on Productivity for Data Scientists and Analysts 

The impacts extend beyond data engineering alone, doubling the ‘bandwidth’ for data scientists and analysts, too. By centralizing data gathering and ensuring data is reliable and ready for use, Snowflake eliminates the time-consuming tasks of searching for and formatting datasets. Such consolidation allows for deeper insights and faster report generation, contributing to more agile and insight-driven organizations.


Drive Business Growth

According to the Forrester study, Snowflake’s flexibility and efficiency have led to a 20% increase in business value. This growth comes from reduced project timelines, enhanced customer satisfaction through faster data sharing, and revenue generation fueled by data-driven decisions and machine learning insights.


Achieve Cost Savings and Greater Flexibility

Transitioning to Snowflake has also enabled organizations to realize significant cost savings, notably by moving away from on-premises servers to a cloud-based model. This change not only reduces hardware and maintenance costs but also aligns spending with actual usage, ensuring more efficient allocation of resources. 


Transform Your Data Management

The Forrester Total Economic Impact™ study clearly brings home the transformative benefits of the Snowflake Data Cloud. As one data and business intelligence architect in a consumer packaged goods company put it: 

“We do almost anything faster. The ability to administer, move around, copy, and share data, instead of taking a day and lots of space and time can now take us seconds. We’re much more agile to try new things.”

As the study points out, executives today simply “expect the right data to be delivered to the right people at the right times [but] limitations around traditional data architecture, the proliferation of data silos, and increasingly diverse data shapes and forms are a growing obstacle. More than ever, businesses need a solution that removes database complexities. Simplifying data pipelines and infrastructure is critical for businesses to quickly and effectively extract value from their data…”
