“Data democratization is data at your fingertips — the ability to access, use, and explore data on your own,” said Dan Natindim, VP, Enterprise Data Office, Globe. “We want to make decision-making powered by data possible to as many job functions in the least possible time with the least dependency from others,”

Snowflake’s platform enables the Data Cloud: the near-unlimited scale and efficiency of a multi-cluster shared data architecture; the seamless interoperability of working with data across multiple public clouds as if they were one; baked-in security features that can’t be turned off; and modern data sharing, which allows virtually any number of organizations to share and receive live data with each other near- instantly and without having to move or copy data.

“Users and executives always want to get deeper into data and have more questions. We now have user groups able to explore, wrangle, and analyze data directly in Snowflake, like never before to answer their own questions,” Natindim said.
