Snowflake services in Estonia
We turn to Snowflake when you need a scalable, high-performance cloud data platform. We help design the architecture, implement the platform and integrate it with the rest of your data environment.
What is Snowflake?
Snowflake is a cloud-based data platform that separates data storage from data processing. That means storage and compute scale independently of each other, and you only pay for what you actually use. Snowflake runs equally well on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, so your platform choice doesn’t depend on any single cloud provider.
Snowflake is well suited to bringing all of an organisation’s data into one place: you can pull in data from different sources and systems, transform it (for example with dbt) and build reporting on top of it (for example with Tableau). Beyond SQL analytics, Snowflake also supports secure data sharing between organisations and running AI directly in the data warehouse (Snowflake Cortex).
The benefit is measurable: instead of fragmented data sources, you get one reliable source of truth that scales with your organisation’s growth, without having to buy excess capacity upfront.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR CLIENTS- Certified Snowflake architects and developers
- Full scale Snowflake implementation with dbt and Tableau
- Performance and cost optimisation
- Legacy platform migration support
Snowflake implementation and architecture
We help design and build a Snowflake data platform that fits your architecture, data volumes and users’ needs. We cover the whole journey, from the first architectural decision and trial period to launching the platform.
- Architecture design
We map your data sources and users’ needs and design a data warehouse structure that’s scalable and manageable years down the line.
- Implementation
We set up the Snowflake environment, roles and permissions, connect your data sources and build automated data pipelines (dbt, Airbyte).
- Connecting other tools
We connect Snowflake to your reporting environment (Tableau, Power BI) and the rest of your data, so the platform is part of a whole, not a standalone solution.
Migration to Snowflake
When an old data warehouse platform (e.g. Vertica, Teradata, Postgres, SQL Server) starts to show its age and no longer meets your business’s growing expectations for performance and scale, we help you move to a modern Snowflake platform.
- Assessment
We map the existing platform, data volumes and dependencies, and put together a migration plan with a timeline and risks.
- Migration
We move data models and data flows to Snowflake in stages, validating data accuracy at every step.
- Transition
We train your team to work on the new platform and make sure the old and new environments’ results match before the old platform is switched off.
Performance and cost optimisation
Snowflake’s costs depend heavily on how the platform is used. We help find the right balance between performance and cost, so you don’t pay for more than you actually need.
- Usage analysis
We analyse warehouse usage, query duration and credit consumption to find where money is being spent unnecessarily.
- Tuning
We tune warehouse sizes and auto-suspend settings, and optimise slow queries and data models.
- Ongoing monitoring
We set up monitoring and alerts, so changes in cost and performance never come as a surprise.
Data security and governance
Snowflake’s built-in security features (encryption, access permissions, data masking) help ensure sensitive data only reaches the right people. We help set these up correctly for your organisation.
- Access permissions
We build a role-based permissions structure that matches your organisation’s structure and the sensitivity of your data.
- Data protection
We set up data masking and encryption for sensitive data and help ensure compliance with regulations (e.g. GDPR).
- Auditability
We make sure access to data, and any changes to it, are tracked and auditable.
AI and Snowflake Cortex
Snowflake Cortex lets you use AI directly inside the data warehouse, without data having to leave the platform. We help assess whether and how this fits your organisation.
- Readiness assessment
We assess whether your data is sufficiently organised and high-quality for AI solutions.
- Implementation
We choose the right Cortex-based solution for your use case and roll it out step by step, with minimal risk.
- Security
We make sure AI solutions comply with data protection requirements (GDPR, AI Act) and that data doesn’t leave a controlled environment.
Start your Snowflake journey with the right partner.
Whether it’s your first Snowflake implementation, tidying up an existing environment, or a migration: the first conversation comes with no obligations.
