Від видавця

Leverage the agility of universal modeling techniques through real-world examples and SQL templates using Snowflake's unique objects and features

Key Features

Learn core modeling techniques tied to practical examples using native Snowflake architecture
Adopt a universal modeling language to communicate business value to functional teams
Go beyond physical modeling with SQL recipes to transform and shape your Snowflake data

Book Description

The Snowflake Data Cloud is one of the fastest-growing platforms for data warehousing and application workloads. Snowflake's scalable, cloud-native architecture and expansive set of features and objects enables you to deliver data solutions quicker than ever before.

Yet, we must ensure that these solutions are developed using recommended design patterns and accompanied by documentation that's easily accessible to everyone in the organization.

This book will help you get familiar with simple and practical data modeling frameworks that accelerate agile design and evolve with the project from concept to code. These universal principles have helped guide database design for decades, and this book pairs them with unique Snowflake-native objects and examples like never before – giving you a two-for-one crash course in theory as well as direct application.

By the end of this Snowflake book, you'll have learned how to leverage Snowflake's innovative features, such as time travel, zero-copy cloning, and change-data-capture, to create cost-effective, efficient designs through time-tested modeling principles that are easily digestible when coupled with real-world examples.

What you will learn
