best cloud data warehouse and why?
Redshift, BigQuery, Snowflake, Microsoft, Delta Lake, etc
I know a few folks from the AWS team that left for Snowflake. I don’t even know what Snowflake is, but if they lured away some high comp folks from AWS, they must be doing something right.
Oracle hired a boatload of AWS folks are they doing something right? No. In fact, they got shitter.
I remember hearing Snowflake was founded by some Oracle guys and then brought over some Microsoft guys. Also Google and Facebook people.
Snowflake is pretty dope. Redshift spectrum is a good option as well, although you do need to operate the AWS IAM system correctly...
Is this how our leadership makes decisions now
Snowflake then bigquery

Snowflake. Hands down. Limitless scalability, seamless data sharing, zero administration. It. Just. Works.
Biased much? Say hi to the used car salesmen Shootman and to bye to your imaginary stock options valuations...
What do you expect to happen to Snowflake employee stock options?
Sounds like an ad for sure! But I've heard quite a lot of good things about Snowflake
