Challenges  

Multinational networking technology manufacturer grappled with data management challenges on its Marketing Data Platform. The platform, housing marketing, web, and partner data, was initially on on-premises infrastructure. As data volumes grew and new sources were added, performance and cost-efficiency became pressing concerns. To address these issues, the client transitioned from Hadoop/HBase to Snowflake, requiring schema modifications. This migration enabled the company to harness Snowflake's cloud-based capabilities, enhancing data processing speed, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. The transformation ensures the Marketing Data Platform remains agile, efficient, and well-positioned to support the company's evolving data needs and technological advancements.
