About the Company

Snowflake

Runs a cloud platform for business data and AI

Snowflake runs a cloud platform where businesses store and analyze data, build AI tools, and share information under common access controls. Its platform separates stored data from computing resources, letting teams run different workloads without maintaining database servers. Analysts query business records with SQL, while developers use Python and other languages to build applications and train models against the same data; Cortex connects AI models to company records so teams build assistants and automate analysis. Customers pay for storage and computing usage across Amazon, Microsoft, and Google infrastructure. Snowflake was founded in 2012 and has its headquarters in Menlo Park, California.
