Dallas User Group: Snowflake Performance Optimization

Dallas / Ft. Worth

Join us on August 29th at 6-8pm CST to learn about fine-tuning performance for Snowflake!

Aug 29, 11:00 PM – Aug 30, 1:00 AM (UTC)

About this event

Join us on August 29th at 6-8pm CST for a detailed exploration of Snowflake's architecture and performance characteristics.

Snowflake's architecture is built upon an extremely cost-effective, high-throughput cloud storage layer that enables Snowflake to provide incredible performance for very large, complex workloads. The objects (files) in the cloud storage layer have a very interesting property... they are immutable... which is the basis for many powerful Snowflake features, but also introduces some unique challenges relative to traditional/legacy database systems. 

Have you ever wondered what really happens when you execute DML commands (UPDATE, DELETE, MERGE, and INSERT) in Snowflake that is built on immutable storage? Have you ever executed a DML and seen performance that did not match your expectations, and wondered what, if anything, could be done to optimize it? In this session, we will dive in and demystify DMLs on Snowflake for you, to give you a solid understanding of their mechanics, and provide real-world guidance for how to analyze and optimize them for peak performance both in your data engineering pipelines as well as end-user queries.

 The session will conclude with an interactive Q&A segment, allowing you to engage directly with Snowflake experts and gain insights into best practices and performance optimization strategies with Snowflake.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn from Snowflake experts, network with peers, and gain powerful new skills. Secure your spot today.
