What are the differences between the two solutions?

• Dataiku and Snowflake offer complementary solutions in the analytics and AI ecosystem. Dataiku is a collaborative AI platform that enables end-to-end management of data analysis projects, facilitating collaboration between data and business experts. It supports a variety of tasks, from data preparation to modeling, with a focus on ease of use and management of complex projects.
• For its part, Snowflake offers a cloud data platform that excels in large-scale data storage and analysis, thanks to its scalable, high-performance architecture. It stands out for its ability to dynamically adapt to computing and storage needs, making data analysis more efficient and less costly.
• By using Dataiku and Snowflake together, companies can combine Dataiku's project management and collaboration with Snowflake's storage and computing power. This integration enables rapid development and deployment of analytics and AI applications in the cloud, optimizing resources and reducing time-to-market .

What pricing for Snowflake?

Snowflake has a pay-per-use billing system, meaning that users only pay when they use the solution.

Computing costs are billed on a per-use basis via an internal Snowflake metric, "Snowflake Credits", and depend on the use of 3 types of resources:
- Virtual warehouses, which are managed by the user and consume credits when queries are used
- Serverless compute, managed by Snowflake, which handles automatic functions (Copying files, Data Quality functions, Materializes views, etc.)
- Cloud services, which coordinate Snowflake's activities and are invoiced to the customer only if their consumption exceeds 10% of the daily use of the virtual warehouses.

The number of "Snowflake Credits" required to make transactions varies according to the size of the virtual warehouses.

The price of a credit can vary between €2 and €4 per credit, depending on the services requested. In addition to pricing, Snowflake charges for data storage, on a monthly basis, per TB stored.
