Joint customers can build and deploy a wide variety of predictions in hours with best-in-class accuracy
Kumo, a leading deep learning platform for relational data, announced at Snowflake’s annual user conference, Snowflake Summit 2023, that it can now run deep learning directly in the Data Cloud with Snowpark Container Services (private preview). Snowpark Container Services allows joint customers to seamlessly deploy the Kumo AI platform within Snowflake’s secure, managed infrastructure — eliminating any data exfiltration and security concerns.
Snowflake, the Data Cloud company, announced the launch of Snowpark Container Services to expand the scope of Snowpark to help organizations run third-party software and full-stack applications — all within their account. By accessing and running commercial software and apps directly in their Snowflake account, customers can seamlessly enhance the value of their data using cutting-edge tools without moving or compromising its security.

Snowpark Container Services also comes with GPU support to provide data science and machine learning teams a way to accelerate development and further close the gap between running models in production with the business imperative of consistent data security and governance across the entire AI/ML lifecycle.
Kumo is one of multiple organizations that are already using Snowpark Container Services to deliver sophisticated applications, specifically neural networks for enterprise deployment. Its predictive AI platform leverages Graph Neural Network technology to enable developers, data scientists, analysts, and line-of-business owners to build and deploy predictions in production with best-in-class accuracy. The end-to-end integration allows Kumo to operate directly on raw Snowflake tables, generate predictions, and then store them back into Snowflake as additional tables.
