MinIO is a high performance, Kubernetes-native, S3 compatible object store that is purpose built for the types of workloads used by Snowflake customers. Its performance exceeds comparable object stores, delivering tens of gigabytes of data per node in throughput. The performance characteristics have made MinIO a leading object store for machine learning frameworks, analytics applications, databases, web applications and other performance-oriented workloads. MinIO’s architecture is renowned for its simplicity and scales from terabytes to exabytes easily.
Joint customers of MinIO and Snowflake will be able to query and analyze multiple data sources residing on MinIO with the Snowflake Data Cloud. This partnership will allow customers to utilize the capabilities of the Snowflake Data Cloud, without incurring the cost to move data. It also enables joint customers to take advantage of multi-tenant data or complete analysis on data that cannot be moved for compliance or other business reasons.
