There's a reason why SaaS observability is replacing the ELK stack. Think how cloud replaced on-prem, there are so many hidden costs! ELK has been the go-to for years, but it's become a real challenge to maintain since it requires more resources, and comes with higher costs, and increased complexity. By simplifying operations, enhancing insights and scaling effortlessly, SaaS allows teams to focus on delivering value instead of maintaining infrastructure. #SaaS #Transformation #Efficiency

When adding all of their clients to a new Confluent Cloud-based architecture, interactive ad-tech platform Skai realized their initial design would require 90,000 topics in order to accommodate everyone. Using many-to-one relationships between producers and topics, and between consumers and topics, Skai devised an ingenious architecture that reduced that number to 1,800 topics. Learn how they did it in a new blog: https://cnfl.io/3WIEQcf

What an amazing few days at #SnowflakeSummit2024. A huge thank you to all our UK customers and partners that travelled to San Francisco for the week with Snowflake. Also a massive thank you to our amazing Marketing team for putting on yet another tremendous event. It was amazing to see the new announcements and how Snowflake's architecture is revolutionising AI applications; Iceberg tables are now in GA, Polaris Catalog is now available to support open storage architectures and we are adding an Internal Marketplace along with more AI governance to Snowflake Horizon. These were just a few of the many announcements. With our best-in-class enterprise data foundation and its ability to unlock interoperability with open data and internal collaboration we have exciting times ahead as we unlock the power of the "AI Data Cloud". Finally, a huge thank you to all our Snowflakes who consistently drive customer awareness and the art of the possible. A consistent theme of the week was - "Don't let your imagination limit the endless possibilities that Snowflake's AI Data Cloud can deliver to your organisation".
