To maintain relevance in today’s rapidly evolving business environment, we firmly believe that companies must evolve into Modern Data Organizations. These organizations dedicate themselves to a core principle: every business decision should be informed by data. The impact of this approach is significant, with Modern Data Organizations being 23 times more likely to attract customers, 19 times more likely to turn a profit, and six times more likely to retain their clientele (source).

The journey to becoming a Modern Data Organization requires the consolidation of data onto a single platform, enabling comprehensive business analysis, the promotion of data-driven decision-making, and the ability to predict future trends.​

We consider the Snowflake Data Cloud to be the bedrock upon which a successful modern data organization is built. However, in our work with clients, we have observed recurrent challenges when they attempt to harness the power of Snowflake.​ These common challenges include:​

  • Insufficient in-depth knowledge of the Snowflake platform​
  • Limited operational visibility​
  • Concerns over data quality​
  • Difficulty measuring Return on Investment (ROI)​
  • Extended time to value realization​
  • Inefficiency in scaling up teams​
  • Difficulty in utilizing advanced features

 

Introducing Snowflake OS

To overcome these obstacles and optimize the value gained from Snowflake, we have developed our proprietary Snowflake OS, which comprises:​

  • Quick Win Sprints: These enable organizations to swiftly resolve data issues and dismantle operational and organizational roadblocks, thereby unlocking Snowflake’s potential. Each quick-win engagement involves a sprint of 2 to 4 weeks, targeting cost optimization, data security, data sharing, data replication, machine learning + AI, and data-native applications. The sprints also help to identify and overcome data-related barriers.​
  • Custom Built Toolkit: This collection of proprietary code-based offerings is part of every engagement with Onesix. Once integrated into a client’s Snowflake instance, it enables immediate cost optimization, data security, data sharing, and data replication.​
  • Consulting Services: Our experienced consultants, who have an average of 10+ years of experience, offer bespoke services, ranging from strategy and implementation to the formation of dedicated data teams and Snowflake optimization and innovation. These services enable clients to conquer their toughest data challenges and expedite value realization.​
  • Client Training: As a Snowflake Premier Partner, we leverage our extensive experience to help organizations enhance their Snowflake proficiency. To foster organizational maturity, we’ve crafted a suite of Snowflake best practices and a tailored training curriculum, which complements the standard Snowflake training. Our training covers the full scope of Snowflake workloads, empowering organizations to sustain and maximize the value derived from Snowflake.

Snowflake OS is the best way to get the most out of Snowflake. By unlocking the full value of the Snowflake platform, businesses will see the following benefits:

  • Reduced time to value​
  • Enhanced security​
  • Improved data quality​
  • Optimized performance​
  • Reduced cost​
