Why is Snowflake so Valuable?
I've used Snowflake a fair amount. It's a decent product, probably on par with Redshift / BigQuery. Obviously theres a lot of hype and free money floating around but my take on why they are popular is that they are basically a replacement for large Hadoop installations that have become untenable to manage over the past decade. If a company is already using Redshift or BigQuery I'm not sure why they would switch.I would be apprehensive in investing in Snowflake long term purely because their product is highly susceptible to being obsoleted in the next 5-10 years.
