Dashboards Are Insufficient to Manage Snowflake Environments

The cloud data platform, Snowflake, has gained prominence due to its easy startup costs, low ops, and instant scalability. However, users have realized that monitoring their database is crucial for preventing issues such as degraded data reliability, performance bottlenecks, and cost overruns. While traditional data governance and reporting tools can spot-check inconsistencies and test for data quality at single points in time, they are not suitable for continuous data validation and testing. A better solution is a unified, continuous data observability platform like Acceldata that automates the continuous data validation and testing needed to create organization-wide trust in data, as well as hiccup-free throughput and optimized price-performance.
