Snowflake Pioneers New Open Framework for Interoperable Enterprise Data and AIJune 2, 2026 9:06 AM
Business Wire Snowflake advances interoperability without compromise across every layer of modern data architecture, enabling teams and AI agents to work from a single, governed, and logical data copy Interoperable By Design: Snowflake enables data to work seamlessly across clouds, tools, and engines without vendor lock-in with general availability support for Apache Iceberg v3®, the broadest feature support on the market, and Snowflake Storage for Apache Iceberg Tables, delivering a complete interoperable platform for managing Apache Iceberg Universal Governance at Scale: Snowflake provides a centralized way to apply governance features consistently and securely across all data and platforms through Snowflake Horizon Catalog capabilities, powered by Apache® Polaris, for bi-directional Iceberg interoperability Powering Enterprises: Organizations including Affirm, Indeed, NTT DOCOMO, and Samsung Ads are using Snowflake to simplify their data architectures and build AI on a consistent, trusted foundation SNOWFLAKE SUMMIT 2026 – Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW), the AI Data Cloud company, today announced at Snowflake Summit 26 new capabilities that redefine interoperability for the AI era, enabling organizations to seamlessly access, govern, share, and act on data across systems without compromise. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260602477507/en/Snowflake Pioneers New Open Framework for Interoperable Enterprise Data and AI For the first time, enterprises can work on a single, live, governed copy of their data wherever it resides across Snowflake, external lakes, and open systems, without moving or duplicating it. Powered by Snowflake Horizon Catalog, organizations can now transform siloed data into a connected, AI-ready foundation where users and AI agents securely discover, govern, and access their full business context. Snowflake is advancing open interoperability with support for Apache Iceberg v35, 1 and Snowflake Storage for Apache Iceberg Tables5, 1, enabling teams to seamlessly work across data inside and outside of Snowflake, while minimizing data movement. In addition, Horizon Catalog powered by Apache Polaris6 enables bi-directional read and write access1 using external engines to Iceberg data managed by Snowflake. Snowflake also extends consistent governance across open ecosystems with external engine access management4 and support for Iceberg REST Scan Plan API4, ensuring fine grained protections apply across compatible engines. Together, these capabilities give organizations a unified, governed foundation for data and AI, unlocking interoperability without compromise. “Most organizations still rely on moving and duplicating data just to make it usable, and that approach simply cannot keep up with the pace of AI. As innovation accelerates, data fragmentation becomes the constraint,” said Christian Kleinerman, EVP of Product, Snowflake. “We are fully committed to interoperability and openness. With Snowflake’s capabilities, we are ushering in a new model for enterprise data, where customers can work directly on live, governed data wherever it resides through a single, connected governance plane. By eliminating duplication and defining shared business meaning through semantic views, we’re establishing a consistent, trusted foundation for both teams and AI agents.” "At Affirm, delivering transparent and responsible financial products starts with having a clear, consistent view of our data,” said Vivek Anandpara, VP of Engineering, Affirm. “Snowflake enables us to work across systems without duplicating data, while applying governance consistently across our environment. This gives our teams a trusted foundation to move faster, improve decisioning, and scale AI with confidence. Our migration of thousands of tables and critical financial workloads to Polaris using Snowflake's interoperable and governed data foundation proved that out — Snowflake partnered closely with us to deliver zero-downtime correctness at scale." Open, Multi-Engine Access with the Interoperable Lakehouse for the AI Era As enterprises scale their AI initiatives, traditional architectures create complexity and drive up costs. Data is often fragmented across platforms and operational systems, forcing organizations to spend valuable time copying, stitching together, and reconciling data before it can be used. This operational overhead delays AI initiatives and creates inconsistent data foundations that make it harder for AI systems to deliver reliable outcomes. Snowflake removes these barriers by enabling teams to work directly on live data wherever it resides, without movement or duplication. By combining open connectivity, intelligent querying, and support for open standards, Snowflake creates a single data foundation that allows organizations to access, understand, share, and act on all their data. New interoperability features enable organizations to: Build on open standards with Apache Iceberg: With Apache Iceberg v3 support now generally available, Snowflake delivers broad support for the latest open table format innovations, including more data types, cross-system change tracking, and high performance on semi-structured data. This helps organizations eliminate fragmented data architectures and reduce costly data movement across platforms and engines. Coupled with Snowflake Storage for Apache Iceberg Tables, organizations can now reduce data movement and operational overhead with a fully managed experience for open data at scale. Access and activate key enterprise data without movement: Snowflake, powered by native Apache Iceberg support and Horizon Context, enables organizations to seamlessly access and act on data across Snowflake and external data lakes without moving or duplicating it. Major platforms like SAP1, Salesforce2, and Workday4, along with new partnerships with AVEVA and IBM, can be accessed without replication using Zero-Copy Integrations, while preserving the business context, policies, and logic that power critical operations and decisions. A dedicated Skill for SAP1 in Snowflake CoCo, Snowflake’s AI coding agent, streamlines how developers connect to, explore, and manage SAP data within Snowflake. Securely talk to all data: Organizations can now empower users to self-serve trusted business insights across their entire data estate using natural language, without requiring manual integration or deep technical expertise. CoCo enables users to ask questions across Snowflake, external data lakes, and now, external relational database systems4, while Horizon Context automatically identifies the right data and applies trusted business context. This enables faster, more reliable decision making on a fully governed data platform. Make shared data instantly agentic: Auto-gen Agents for Data Shares and Listings3 let providers turn any shared data listing or secure data share into a conversational AI agent, ready to use in CoCo, Snowflake CoWork, or Snowsight. With Cortex Agent Sharing3, agents can be deployed across Snowflake accounts to internal teams, partners, or in Snowflake Marketplace. Consumers can ask questions in natural language, combine shared data with their own first-party data for richer insights, and get enterprise governance out of the box. “At Indeed, we empower our teams to securely access and act on trusted data across systems, which actively drives our global scale and creates better hiring experiences,” said Trey Henninger, VP Data and Analytics, Indeed. “Snowflake’s interoperable approach streamlines our architecture, slashing unnecessary data movement while maintaining strict governance and flexibility across platforms. This builds a powerhouse foundation for innovation and accelerates how quickly we deploy new AI-powered capabilities.” “As we expand our data and AI initiatives, it’s critical that we can work across systems without adding complexity,” said Yoshio Umezawa, Vice President General Manager of Service Innovation Department R&D Innovation Division, NTT DOCOMO, INC. “Snowflake allows us to access and govern data wherever it resides, while maintaining a consistent, trusted foundation. This helps our teams move faster, reduce operational overhead, and deliver more intelligent services to our customers.” “At Samsung Ads, delivering relevant and measurable advertising experiences depends on having seamless access to trusted data across a complex ecosystem,” said Hervé Marcellini, Vice President of Engineering, Samsung Ads. “Snowflake enables us to work across systems without duplicating data, while maintaining consistent governance throughout our environment. This allows our teams to move faster, improve targeting and measurement, and scale AI-driven innovation with confidence.” Centralized Governance and Control Across Systems As data becomes increasingly distributed and AI systems operate with greater autonomy, organizations face growing challenges in consistently governing, securing, and auditing data across every system where it is accessed, shared, and used. Snowflake addresses this challenge with Horizon Catalog, powered by Apache Polaris6, providing a single, connected foundation for governance across enterprise data inside and outside of Snowflake. By centralizing how data is discovered, secured, and monitored, Horizon Catalog ensures policies are applied consistently, access is controlled across environments, and organizations can operate with confidence as they scale AI on a single, governed, and live data copy. New capabilities in Horizon Catalog enable organizations to: Securely access Snowflake managed Iceberg tables through open security controls: Snowflake managed Iceberg tables deliver optimized performance on Snowflake, while providing flexible controls to improve performance across other engines. Horizon Catalog, powered by Apache Polaris6, enables secure, governed, bi-directional read and write access to Snowflake managed Iceberg tables from external engines through open, standards-based access controls defined by the Iceberg community. This ensures organizations can connect multi-platform data architectures under one governance layer, without proprietary lock in or operational friction. Achieve universal access controls across engines for any Iceberg Table: Building on Catalog Linked Databases, which automatically make external Iceberg Tables discoverable and accessible in Snowflake, organizations can now use external engine access management4 to enable secure engine access to external tables for read and write operations, making Horizon Catalog the universal catalog for enterprise data. The result is a single, metadata driven control plane that unifies governance, security, and policy enforcement across multi-catalog environments. Extend consistent governance across environments: Support for Data Protection Policies1, such as column masking and row access enforcement using the open source Iceberg REST Scan Plan API, ensures fine-grained access control across Iceberg-compatible engines. Combined with Sensitive Data Classification1 and Data Quality controls1, Snowflake customers can now define policies and centrally manage governance in Horizon Catalog. This universal governance layer for all Iceberg tables enables organizations to seamlessly discover, secure, and govern data across environments. Share data across any engine or platform: Open Data Sharing enables organizations to securely share data and AI assets with customers, partners, and internal teams on any engine, without copies. Recipients access directly from the platforms, tools, and engines of their choice with consistent governance and lineage intact. With no data movement, duplicate compute, or vendor lock-in, customers benefit from simpler collaboration, lower infrastructure costs, and greater flexibility. Providers share once, and consumers access from anywhere. Gain full visibility and auditability across systems: Connected Audit Access in Horizon4 and new observability for externally managed Iceberg Tables4 give organizations a centralized view into data access and pipeline health across Snowflake and external environments, helping teams proactively monitor activity, troubleshoot issues faster, and operate with greater confidence.

By extending governance to AI-driven workflows, Snowflake makes it easier for companies to safely manage not just their data, but also the actions AI agents take across business workflows. See the section titled “Key Business Metrics” for definitions of product revenue, net revenue retention rate, customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, Forbes Global 2000 customers, and remaining performance obligations. ________________________________________ 1 The average of the last 4 weeks of the quarter ended April 30, 2026, counted based on capacity and on-demand accounts using the respective features on a weekly basis via our internal classification. Financial Outlook: Our guidance includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, the company expects: Product revenue of $1,415 million to $1,420 million, representing 30% year-over-year growth Non-GAAP operating margin2 of 12.5% Non-GAAP weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted2,3,4 of 375 million For the full-year of fiscal 2027, the company expects: Product revenue of $5,840 million, representing 31% year-over-year growth, up from previous guidance of $5,660 million, or 27% year-over-year growth Non-GAAP product gross margin2 of 75.0% Non-GAAP operating margin2 of 13.5%, up from previous guidance of 12.5% Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow margin2 of 23.0% Non-GAAP weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted2,3,4 of 376 million A reconciliation of GAAP guidance measures to corresponding non-GAAP guidance measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. These factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP. Our fiscal year ends January 31, and numbers are rounded for presentation purposes. _______________________________________ 2 We report non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. See the section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for an explanation of non-GAAP financial measures. 3 The potential impact of future repurchases under our stock repurchase program is not reflected in our guidance for weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, the timing and amount of repurchases. Additionally, the dilutive effect of the shares issuable upon conversion of our 0% convertible senior notes due 2027 and 0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (the Notes) using the if-converted method, estimated at approximately 15 million shares for each of the second quarter and full-year of fiscal 2027 based on the current conversion price and net of the potential antidilutive impact of the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the Notes (the Capped Calls), is reflected in our guidance for weighted-average shares used in computing net income per share attributable to common stockholders—diluted. Upon conversion of the Notes, we may choose to satisfy our conversion obligations by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of both. The Capped Calls will have an antidilutive impact when the average stock price of our common stock in a given period is higher than their exercise price. The estimated antidilutive impact of the Capped Calls reflected in our guidance is based on the market price of our common stock as of April 30, 2026, and is subject to change with future stock price movements. 4 Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we no longer attribute a portion of our non-GAAP net income to noncontrolling interest. See section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further information.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures We report the following non-GAAP financial measures, which have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP Product gross profit, Operating income, Net income, Net income attributable to Snowflake Inc., and Net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—basic and diluted. Non-GAAP product gross profit, operating income, net income, and net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. are each defined as the respective GAAP measure, excluding, as applicable, the effect of (i) stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, (ii) amortization of acquired intangibles, (iii) expenses associated with acquisitions and strategic investments, (iv) amortization of debt issuance costs, (v) restructuring charges, net of associated income and recoveries, (vi) asset impairment related to office facility exits, net of associated sublease income, if any, (vii) adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interest, if any, and (viii) the related income tax effect of these adjustments as well as the non-recurring income tax expense or benefit associated with acquisitions. Non-GAAP product gross margin is calculated as non-GAAP product gross profit as a percentage of product revenue. Non-GAAP operating margin is calculated as non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of revenue. Our non-GAAP net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—basic is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Our non-GAAP net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders—diluted is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income attributable to Snowflake Inc. by the non-GAAP weighted-average number of diluted shares outstanding, which includes (a) the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, restricted stock units, employee stock purchase rights under our 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan), (b) the potential dilutive effect of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes using the if-converted method, and (c) the antidilutive impact, if any, of the Capped Calls entered into in connection with the Notes. The Capped Calls are expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the Notes under certain circumstances. Under GAAP, the antidilutive impact of the Capped Calls is not reflected in diluted shares outstanding until exercised. The potential dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock units with performance conditions not yet satisfied is included in the non-GAAP weighted-average number of diluted shares at forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is probable that the performance conditions will be met. Amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest were not material for all periods presented. Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company no longer attributes a portion of non-GAAP net income to noncontrolling interest as it no longer controls a majority-owned subsidiary. The calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 and subsequent periods aligns with the methodology used to calculate non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders as described above. We believe the presentation of operating results that exclude these items that are (i) non-cash items, (ii) non-recurring items, or (iii) items that have highly variable amounts due to factors beyond our control and are unrelated to our core operations such that management does not consider them in evaluating the business performance or making operating plans, provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and any capitalized software development costs. Cash outflows for employee payroll tax items related to the net share settlement of equity awards are included in cash flow for financing activities and, as a result, do not have an effect on the calculation of free cash flow. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. We believe these measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they are indicators of the strength and performance of our core business operations. Adjusted free cash flow. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow plus (minus) net cash paid (received) on employer and employee payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions. Employee payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions are generally pass-through transactions that are expected to have a net zero impact on free cash flow over time, but that may impact free cash flow in any given fiscal quarter due to differences between the time that we receive funds from our employees and the time we remit those funds to applicable tax authorities. We believe that excluding the effects of these payroll tax-related items will enhance investors' ability to evaluate our free cash flow performance, including on a quarter-over-quarter basis. Adjusted free cash flow margin is calculated as adjusted free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. We believe these measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they are indicators of the strength and performance of our core business operations. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results. Key Business Metrics We monitor our key business metrics, including (i) free cash flow and (ii) the other metrics set forth below to help us evaluate our business and growth trends, establish budgets, measure the effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts, and assess operational efficiencies. See the section titled “Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for the definition of free cash flow. The calculation of our key business metrics may differ from other similarly titled metrics used by other companies, securities analysts, or investors. Product Revenue. Product revenue is a key metric for us because we recognize revenue based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at our customers’ discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Product revenue is primarily derived from the consumption of compute, storage, and data transfer resources by customers on our platform. Customers have the flexibility to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Our consumption-based business model distinguishes us from subscription-based software companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from our platform. While customer use of our platform in any period is not necessarily indicative of future use, we estimate future revenue using predictive models based on customers’ historical usage to plan and determine financial forecasts. Product revenue excludes our professional services and other revenue. Net Revenue Retention Rate. To calculate net revenue retention rate, we first specify a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from our current period end. Next, we define as our measurement cohort the population of customers under capacity contracts that used our platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The cohorts used to calculate net revenue retention rate include end-customers under a reseller arrangement. We then calculate our net revenue retention rate as the quotient obtained by dividing our product revenue from this cohort in the second year of the measurement period by our product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period. Any customer in the cohort that did not use our platform in the second year remains in the calculation and contributes zero product revenue in the second year. Our net revenue retention rate is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our net revenue retention rate for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Since we will continue to attribute the historical product revenue to the consolidated contract, consolidation of capacity contracts within a customer’s organization typically will not impact our net revenue retention rate unless one of those customers was not a customer at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. Customers with Trailing 12-Month Product Revenue Greater than $1 Million. To calculate the number of customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, we count the number of customers under capacity arrangements that contributed more than $1 million in product revenue in the trailing 12 months. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat each customer account, including accounts for end-customers under a reseller arrangement, that has at least one corresponding capacity contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers. We do not include customers that consume our platform only under on-demand arrangements for purposes of determining our customer count. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Forbes Global 2000 Customers. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is a subset of our customer count based on the 2025 Forbes Global 2000 list. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is subject to adjustments for annual updates to the list by Forbes, as well as acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity with respect to such customers, and we present our Forbes Global 2000 customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Remaining Performance Obligations. Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including (i) deferred revenue and (ii) non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears. Portions of RPO that are not yet invoiced and are denominated in foreign currencies are revalued into U.S. dollars each period based on the applicable period-end exchange rates. RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity. Moreover, RPO is influenced by a number of factors, including the timing and size of renewals, the timing and size of purchases of additional capacity, average contract terms, seasonality, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and the extent to which customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Due to these factors, it is important to review RPO in conjunction with product revenue and other financial metrics disclosed elsewhere herein.

Snowflake Makes Enterprise Data AI-Ready With Snowflake Postgres and Advanced Innovations for Open Data InteroperabilityFebruary 3, 2026 3:01 AM
Business Wire
Leading enterprises including BlueCloud and Sigma Computing will rely on Snowflake Postgres to reduce data silos and complex data pipelines for AI and analytics use cases
Snowflake Horizon Catalog helps customers like Merck and Motorq access and govern data across different systems and formats with enhanced interoperability, reducing data silos, eliminating lock-in, and helping ensure AI systems run on trusted data
Snowflake is advancing data sharing and data backup capabilities, enabling enterprises to build AI systems that can be securely shared and protected wherever it lives
Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW), the AI Data Cloud company, today announced advancements that make data AI-ready by design, allowing enterprises to rely on data that is continuously available, usable, and governed as AI transitions from experimentation into real-world production systems. With new enhancements to Snowflake Postgres (generally available soon), the world’s most popular database1 now runs natively in the AI Data Cloud so enterprises can consolidate their transactional, analytical, and AI use cases onto a single, secure platform. To help ensure AI systems are trusted at enterprise scale, Snowflake is further embedding enhanced interoperability, governance, and resilience features into its platform, enabling more customers to bring Snowflake directly to their data, wherever it lives.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260203524672/en/Snowflake Postgres unifies the world’s most popular database with analytics and AI on a single, secure platform
“As businesses move from AI experimentation to production, the real challenge is ensuring AI systems can consistently access data that is connected, governed, and discoverable across the enterprise,” said Christian Kleinerman, EVP of Product, Snowflake. “That means eliminating data silos, fragile pipelines, and closed systems that slow down AI deployment and increase risk. By bringing unified operational and analytical data, as well as open interoperability together in one platform, we’re empowering customers to develop enterprise-ready AI systems that work with real business data, securely and at scale.”
“At Sigma, our customers expect live, interactive analytics on the most current business data,” said Jake Hannan, Head of Data, Sigma Computing. “With Snowflake Postgres, we can work directly on fresh transactional data inside Snowflake without relying on complex pipelines or external systems. That gives our teams and customers a simpler, more reliable foundation to build governed analytics and AI-powered experiences that respond in real time.”
Connecting Enterprise Data and AI to Power Mission-Critical Apps and AI Agents
Most organizations still keep their transactional and analytical databases siloed on separate systems, a legacy approach that forces teams to rely on complex pipelines to connect these systems. This fragmentation adds steep costs, slows development, introduces risk, and delays insights. Snowflake Postgres eliminates these pipelines by bringing transactional, analytical, and AI capabilities together on a single, enterprise-ready platform. In turn, full compatibility with open source Postgres allows companies to move their existing apps onto Snowflake, without code changes. Now with Snowflake Postgres, teams can power critical apps and AI agents, analyze business performance and trends using the most up-to-date data from their operations, and build AI-driven features like recommendations or forecasting — all without costly, complex data pipelines or the infrastructure overhead of managing multiple vendors.
Powered by pg_lake, a set of PostgreSQL extensions that allow Postgres to easily work within an organization’s open and interoperable lakehouse grounded in Apache IcebergTM2, enterprises can leverage Snowflake Postgres to directly query, manage, and write to Apache Iceberg tables using standard SQL. This capability is delivered within a familiar Postgres environment, so enterprises can eliminate costly data movement between transactional and analytical systems. Enterprises such as BlueCloud and Sigma Computing are using Snowflake Postgres to simplify their data architectures and run enterprise-ready AI and apps on connected data.
“For BlueCloud, Snowflake Postgres represents a major opportunity to help our customers eliminate data pipelines, without compromising performance,” said Rob Sandberg, SVP and Head of Advisory Consulting, BlueCloud. “Its enterprise-grade Postgres foundation brings real credibility, particularly for the financial services organizations we support. With Snowflake Postgres, we can deliver low-latency transactional workloads alongside analytics and AI on a single platform, reducing overhead and helping our customers be more agile in meeting their business goals.”
Making Data Governed and Open for Trusted AI
As AI moves into production, enterprises need data that remains open, governed, and resilient as it flows across engines, formats, and environments. To address this need, Snowflake is expanding how customers access, share, and govern their data, so AI systems can scale with real-world demands:
Freedom to work across engines without impacting governance controls: To reduce silos and avoid vendor lock-in, Snowflake enables enforcement of the same governance policies when Snowflake data is queried from other engines. Snowflake Horizon Catalog, which provides context and governance for AI across all data, is enabling customers like science and technology company, Merck, and Motorq, a leading connected vehicle intelligence company, to leverage external engines to securely access data in Apache Iceberg tables (now generally available), as well as create, update, or manage data stored in Iceberg tables (public preview soon).
Seamless data collaboration across open formats: As organizations increasingly rely on open table formats, Snowflake is simplifying how those formats are shared without duplicating data or managing fragile pipelines. Open Format Data Sharing extends Snowflake’s zero-ETL sharing model to include formats such as Apache Iceberg and Delta Lake, enabling secure data sharing across teams, clouds, and regions. Customers can now share data in open formats, while maintaining control over access and costs. A new integration with Microsoft OneLake (now generally available) enables mutual customers with secured bidirectional read access for Iceberg data managed by Snowflake or Microsoft Fabric. This means customers can seamlessly access all their data across both platforms without complexity or data duplication.
Built-in resilience to protect business-critical data: To help enterprises address regulatory requirements and withstand disruptions, Snowflake is strengthening how data is protected by default. Snowflake Backups (now generally available) further strengthens data resilience by protecting business-critical data. Organizations can recover quicker from ransomware or disruptions, while ensuring data isn’t altered or deleted once created. These protections give enterprises greater confidence that essential data is preserved, even in the face of unexpected events or security incidents.

Business Wire
With Semantic View Autopilot, organizations including eSentire, HiBob, Simon AI, and VTS can ensure that AI agents operate on the same trusted business metrics, while cutting semantic model creation from days to minutes
Customers like World Kinect can leverage natural language prompts from Cortex Code within Snowflake Notebooks to automate the development and deployment of fully-functional ML pipelines, including real-time workflows
Enterprises like WHOOP use Cortex Agent Evaluations to confidently bring AI agents into production by making their behavior transparent and auditable
Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW), the AI Data Cloud company, today announced new innovations to help enterprises deliver real business impact with AI, which requires more than high-quality models alone. Snowflake is unveiling Semantic View Autopilot (now generally available), an AI-powered service that automates the creation and governance of semantic views, giving AI agents a shared understanding of business metrics to deliver consistent, trustworthy outcomes. Snowflake is also introducing new capabilities across agent evaluations and observability, end-to-end machine learning (ML), and AI cost governance. These innovations build on Snowflake’s existing enterprise-grade foundations, ensuring that AI systems such as Snowflake Intelligence are trusted, governed, and ready to operate reliably at scale, all while working directly on organizations’ most valuable data.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260203233912/en/Accelerates time-to-insight across business intelligence tools and AI agents by automatically building, optimizing, and maintaining semantic views
“AI is quickly becoming part of the operating fabric of the enterprise, not a side project,” said Christian Kleinerman, EVP of Product, Snowflake. “Our focus is to make that future a reality now by ensuring AI agents operate on consistent business logic, behave as expected, and scale without surprises. By unifying trust, governance, and execution on one platform, we’re delivering AI that actually works in the environments our customers care about.”
Automating the Semantic Layer to Enable Accurate, Trustworthy AI
Enterprises are deploying AI agents into environments where business metrics are manually defined and inconsistently governed, leaving them without a shared understanding of business context. This fragmented approach to building the semantic layer is a bottleneck for AI adoption, producing unreliable outputs and weakening trust in AI.
Semantic View Autopilot addresses this challenge by automatically building, optimizing, and maintaining governed semantic views, potentially eliminating the need for manual, error-prone semantic modeling. This builds on Snowflake’s commitment to initiatives like the Open Semantic Interchange (OSI), which establishes an interoperable semantic layer across ecosystem leaders. While OSI provides the connectivity to share business logic across the ecosystem, Semantic View Autopilot adds the intelligence to create and continuously maintain it, making it the connective layer for trustworthy, scalable AI across all data, wherever it lives.
By learning from real user activity and using AI-powered generation, Semantic View Autopilot will help ensure business logic remains accurate and up-to-date across Snowflake data and consumption tools including dbt Labs, Google Cloud’s Looker, Sigma, and ThoughtSpot (generally available soon). Customers can create semantic views using business definitions not only from Snowflake, but also from the business intelligence tools they already rely on. As a result, enterprises can minimize AI hallucinations while cutting semantic model creation from days to minutes, accelerating time-to-market and delivering a decisive competitive advantage.
Leading organizations including eSentire, HiBob, Simon AI, and VTS are already using Semantic View Autopilot to dramatically reduce data-to-insight timelines and free data teams to focus on higher-value AI innovation.
"At Simon AI, our focus is helping businesses turn data into real, actionable outcomes. But inconsistencies between business logic have historically slowed how far AI can be applied," said Matt Walker, CTO at Simon AI. "Semantic View Autopilot provides our AI systems with a consistent, governed understanding of business metrics that we can collaborate upon with our customers. This allows us to deliver reliable personalization and AI-driven engagement that our customers can trust to drive measurable results."
Snowflake Accelerates ML Model Production with Agentic AI and Real-Time Deployment
To speed up the delivery of powerful ML models, Snowflake is unveiling significant advancements to Snowflake Notebooks (now generally available), a fully-managed Jupyter-powered notebook built for end-to-end data science and ML development on Snowflake data.
Snowflake Notebooks is integrated directly with Cortex Code in Snowsight (generally available soon), a data-native AI coding agent built to automate and accelerate end-to-end enterprise development. This allows users to build and deploy fully-functional ML pipelines using simple natural language prompts, reducing manual effort and speeding up workflows. Experiment Tracking (now generally available) makes it easy for teams to compare training runs, share results, and reproduce the best-performing models from within Snowflake Notebooks, turning experimentation into a repeatable, collaborative process.
When models are ready for production, Snowflake supports real-time use cases with Online Feature Store (now generally available) and Online Model Inference (now generally available), enabling features to be served in milliseconds and predictions delivered at scale. With training, serving, and monitoring all happening within the Snowflake platform, teams can operationalize ML while maintaining consistent governance from data to model to insight.
Enterprises like Aimpoint Digital are already leveraging Snowflake Notebooks to run ML projects on Snowflake, unlocking use cases like personalization, fraud detection, and predictive analytics.
Cortex Agent Evaluations Help Enterprises Deploy Trusted, Production-Grade AI Agents
When AI powers mission-critical enterprise decisions, trust and reliability are essential. Cortex Agent Evaluations (generally available soon) addresses this challenge, helping teams confidently bring AI agents into production by making their behavior traceable, measurable, and auditable.
Cortex Agent Evaluations give developers deep visibility into how agents reason, act, and respond, which enables them to systematically assess answer correctness, tool use, and logical consistency. With visibility into an agent's thought process, teams can easily identify errors, refine decision logic, and validate that agents are behaving as intended before they impact the business. It also promotes efficiency of the AI interactions by preventing operational waste such as redundant tool calls and spiraling compute costs. Enterprises like WHOOP are already leveraging Cortex Agent Evaluations in Snowflake to improve agent quality, without moving data or stitching together external monitoring tools.
As Snowflake continues to innovate across AI, it is also focused on making AI economically sustainable for enterprises through expanded cost governance capabilities in Cortex AI Functions (now generally available) that help organizations plan, control, and audit their AI usage with precision. Before AI workloads ever run, teams can proactively estimate consumption using the AI_COUNT_TOKENS function, making it easier to understand how prompt design and context size translate into real cost.
