GAC saved monthly usage cost of Snowflake data storage by more than 60% for a multi-billion USD global retail company.

 The Business Context: 
Our client had Snowflake as their data warehouse tool for data storage and analytics. GAC stepped in and helped to optimize and reduce the cost of Snowflake usage considerably.  

The key Business Challenge: 
How to control and reduce the monthly recurring expenditure on Snowflake data storage setup? 

The approach & delivery by GAC : 
Our expert team developed unique strategies for client to gain control over the mounting operational cost of Snowflake. We used snow-pipe, Snowflake tasks, and Auto clustering to re-engineer the entire data warehouse management system.  Data flow was streamlined, and redundant tasks were completely cleaned to ensure the snowflake credit usage reduced considerably. The monthly spends were further reduced by efficient usage of snowflake features like dynamic tables, snow-pipe/task monitoring, email alerts for data discrepancy, and data sharing capabilities.  

Client benefit:
Cost savings, efficient data warehouse management while saving resource cost.
