  • One, Near-Zero Maintenance Platform Delivered as a Service: Choose any combination of infrastructure providers, enable your workloads where you want, rely on Snowflake to manage the data platform, and deploy across and between different clouds and regions to support business efficiencies and data sovereignty.
