Control Issues: Overcoming Departmental Territorialism to Increase Data Sharing

Here’s a scenario that might feel painfully familiar. Your marketing department captures customer leads, and passes them to the sales department.

Data Programmability with Snowpark API and Java UDFs

Not every developer wants to write in SQL, nor does SQL naturally handle every data programmability problem. This leads users to pull their data into other systems, which adds cost, time, and complexity while hurting security and governance. Snowflake is continuously making the platform more developer-friendly and extensible so more can be done with less. In this session, we discuss the present and future of Snowflake's extensibility, including Java UDFs and Snowpark. We'll also demo many exciting features in our roadmap and explore the scenarios they unlock.

HBase to CDP Operational Database Migration Overview

This blog post provides an overview of the HBase to CDP Operational Database (COD) migration process.
