Descrierea cursului

Get a complete picture of how Snowflake is built and why it works the way it does. Starting from the three-layer architecture that separates compute, storage, and cloud services, you'll work your way through virtual warehouses, storage internals, and Snowflake's AI/ML capabilities. By the end, you'll have the foundational mental model needed to work effectively in Snowflake.

Setting up Snowy Peak's database structure

Granting the right privileges

Virtual Warehouses: Types, Sizing, and Scaling

Identifying a misconfigured warehouse

Matching workloads to warehouse configurations

Solving a concurrency problem

Loading Structured and Semi-Structured Data

Loading Snowy Peak's user data

Querying Snowy Peak's avalanche event data

Micro-Partitions and Data Clustering

Go under the hood to see how Snowflake physically organizes data using micro-partitions and clustering keys. You'll also compare table types and views to understand when to use each, and explore how Snowflake handles unstructured files alongside traditional data.

Micro-Partitions and Data Clustering

Partition Pruning

Good vs Poor Clustering Key Candidates

Impact of reclustering

Table Types and Views

Table types and data protection

Select the correct view type

Understanding Materialized Views

Working with Unstructured Data

AI/ML, Data Protection, and Sharing

Round out your Snowflake foundation by exploring its growing AI/ML ecosystem — from Snowpark and Cortex to Streamlit and Notebooks. You'll also cover essential data protection techniques like Time Travel and cloning, and see how the Snowflake Marketplace enables easy data sharing.

Tools for Every Team

Match Snowflake tools to their use cases

Notebook Properties

Snowflake Cortex and ML Features

Pick the right Cortex function for PDF extraction

Snowflake Cortex vs Snowflake ML

Data Protection and Sharing

Querying historical data with Time Travel
