Snowflake has deepened its partnership with investor Salesforce by introducing two tools that seamlessly connect their cloud-native systems. Snowflake and Salesforce with Embed.
These integrations empower customers to export Salesforce data to Snowflake and analyze it using Salesforce’s Einstein Analytics and Tableau applications. The overarching goal is to provide enterprises with a unified repository for all their data.
Snowflake and Salesforce with Embed
The first tool, Einstein Analytics Output Connector for Snowflake, allows customers to transfer their Salesforce data into the Snowflake data warehouse, integrating it with data from other sources. This enables joint customers to consolidate all their Salesforce data within Snowflake. Automated data import ensures that the Snowflake copy remains up-to-date.
The second tool, Einstein Analytics Direct Data for Snowflake, enables users to execute queries within their Snowflake Salesforce repository. These queries can also include data from other sources such as business applications, mobile apps, web activity, IoT devices, and datasets obtained through the Snowflake Data Marketplace and Private Data Exchange.
The Einstein Analytics Output Connector for Snowflake is set to become available to customers later this year, while Einstein Analytics Direct Data for Snowflake is currently in open beta and is expected to be generally available later this year.
Salesforce’s substantial investment in Snowflake, as a co-lead investor in its recent $479 million funding round, underscores its vested interest in Snowflake’s success. This deepened partnership between Snowflake and Salesforce highlights their commitment to providing innovative solutions that empower enterprises to harness the full potential of their data.
