As more organizations access and share increasing amounts of data, the insights possible with the Data Cloud continue to grow:

  • New industry-leading data providers like ZoomInfo and Foursquare help users unlock even more value that is relevant to their business in the Data Cloud.

“Snowflake Data Marketplace enables us to seamlessly deliver our updated intelligence data in near-real time to our customers, on a platform that scales as our data assets expand,” ZoomInfo Founder and CEO, Henry Schuck said. “With Snowflake’s Data Cloud, enterprises can access the ZoomInfo data they need, when they need it, and pair it with their own data assets, to unlock new insights and solve their most complex business problems.”

Snowflake also announced new capabilities that will reimagine the data buying experience on Snowflake Data Marketplace and simplify secure data sharing both for data consumers and data providers:

  • “Try before you buy” will allow users to access sample data, evaluate if it meets the desired needs, and test if it will join properly with other data being analyzed, then seamlessly upgrade to the full dataset, all from within the platform.
  • New usage-based purchase options that will enable consumers to transact entirely on the Snowflake Data Marketplace, streamlining the process of purchasing third-party data.

These features are currently under development and are expected to be available in a future release.

“We’re always working to reduce friction and simplify the process by which our customers have access to the data they need, when they need it,” Snowflake SVP of Product, Christian Kleinerman said. “As the capabilities of Snowflake Data Marketplace expand, and the breadth of accessible data continues to grow, teams can spend their time deriving value from data and fully realizing the powerful benefits of the Data Cloud.”
