Contradicting Data: Snowflake Consumption Outpacing Spark
The pervasiveness of Snowflake is measured by the number of mentions divided by the total mentions. The deceleration in spending on Snowflake seemed aligned with customer feedback, but Snowflake data contradicts this. Snowflake consumption has surpassed Spark consumption, indicating its growth. Snowflake's senior vice president explains why Snowpark is more cost-effective than Spark. Snowflake customers with Snowpark keep their data inside Snowflake. A significant number of Snowflake accounts also have Snowpark, and 63% of global 2000 customers use Snowpark weekly. The rise in the chart raises questions about cost and whether it replaces lower-cost options. The company claims huge cost savings compared to alternative solutions.
