Build scalable data architecture with real-world use cases and SQL recipes using Snowflakes unique features. From fundamentals to frameworks, this book helps business and engineering teams unlock the value of their data

Key Features

Learn core modeling techniques tied to practical examples using native Snowflake architecture
Adopt a universal modeling language to communicate business value to functional teams
Go beyond physical modeling with SQL recipes to transform and shape your Snowflake data

Book Description

The Snowflake Data Cloud is one of the fastest-growing platforms for data warehousing and application workloads. Snowflakes scalable, cloud-native architecture and expansive set of features and objects enable users to deliver data solutions quicker than ever before. However, unless modeling best-practices are observed, the costs will quickly pile up. When the data and the business model dont match, or designs fail to leverage platform efficiencies, constant tuning and re-work will result in elevated operational and human capital costs. This book will familiarize the reader with simple and practical data modeling frameworks which accelerate agile design and evolve with the project from concept to code. These universal principles have been guiding database design for decades and, in this book, are coupled for the first time with unique Snowflake-native objects and examplesgiving the reader a two-for-one crash course in the theory and its direct application. Readers will learn how to leverage Snowflakes innovative features like Time Travel, Zero-copy Cloning, and change-data-capture to create cost-saving, efficient designs through time-tested modeling principles that are easily digestible when coupled with real-world examples.
