CAPABILITY 13

Snowflake

Modernise your data warehouse and deliver governed analytics and AI on Snowflake.

BUSINESS CONTEXT AND APPROACH

Modernise your data warehouse and deliver governed analytics and AI on Snowflake.

Snowflake services bring migration, data engineering and AI use cases into one delivery plan. We start with the workloads that matter, design the target data model and establish controls for access, quality and spend.

Moving a warehouse is not complete when tables load successfully. We validate business totals, downstream reports and operating performance, then introduce AI features only where data access and evaluation are defined.

OUTCOME AND MEASURES

A governed data platform with measurable quality and operating cost controls.

Before delivery starts we agree baselines for:

  • Reconciliation accuracy and data freshness
  • Report performance and workload adoption
  • Warehouse utilisation and cost per workload
SNOWFLAKE DELIVERY ARCHITECTURE

Assess, load, govern, serve and optimise.

A reference delivery architecture for warehouse migration and governed analytics on Snowflake, with AI features introduced once access and evaluation are defined.

ANIMATED SCENARIO

Deliver a governed finance data view

The scenario follows finance data through migration, validation, access controls and a governed view that reports and AI features can use.
