some context
Why Use DataGalaxy with Snowflake?
Like many database services, Snowflake provides users with a lot of creative flexibility, but the tool itself can quickly become overwhelming for users performing specific business matters.
Often, the answers to users’ questions are somewhere in the data set, but it’s difficult understanding where to begin to look for them.
- Where can I find detailed information about my clients?
- How fresh is the data displayed in the table I’m looking at?
- What does the “gross margin” column refer to, and how is it calculated ?
- How are the “client” and “bill” tables related to each other?
- How can I check how fast my database is growing?
Let’s face it – Information like this can’t be found easily in Snowflake. Data catalogs and metadata management tools give users the ability to dive deeper into their data than using Snowflake alone.

Visualize insightful data lineage
Once your Snowflake resources are synchronized, internal and external dependencies will be created, and you will be able to start exploring them at the scale of your entire company.

DataGalaxy’s Snowflake connector provides a snapshot of your table’s metrics, including storage size and row count, to keep tracks of them so you can easily check how your resources evolve over time.
Utilize a common business vocabulary
Data governance is all about using a common business vocabulary. DataGalaxy helps your company get organized by automatically generating a Business Glossary from your data source by linking it to existing assets in your Business Glossary or adding new entries when necessary.
