The concept of quality is familiar. People make judgments about it every day. Yet articulating a clear definition of quality is challenging. The best companies often appear to be characterized by an ineffable something, much like that of people who seem graced by a lucky gene. For reasons that are not always evident, some do the right things with better results than average. They may not appear to be savvier acquirers, more adept marketers, or bolder pioneers, yet they integrate new businesses better, launch products more successfully, and open new markets with fewer mishaps.

Most of the information available on cloud computing is either highly technical, with details that are irrelevant to nontechnologists, or pure marketing hype, in which the cloud is simply a selling point. This book, however, explains the cloud from the user's viewpoint - the business user's in particular. Nayan Ruparelia explains what the cloud is, when to use it (and when not to), how to select a cloud service, how to integrate it with other technologies, and what the best practices are for using cloud computing.

Publisher's Summary
Marcin Zukowski, Thierry Cruanes, and Benoit Dageville had a mission. As Snowflake’s founders, they wanted to make all types of data available to anybody with permission to use it via a simple and inexpensive mechanism. Their collective efforts drove the breakthrough creation of the Data Cloud. Snowflake’s Data Cloud platform ingests available data and transforms it into information. Without the ability to effectively process, data is just a collection of raw facts. If data can be managed, processed, and organized, the resulting information can be harnessed to make data-driven decisions. Data Cloud allows organizations to fully automate many core business processes — making them more efficient, massively scalable, and less prone to error.
Suppose you’re an IT manager responsible for managing data. Your frustrations with disconnected datasets, hardware storage constraints, lack of unique identifiers between multiple datasets and access to analytics is making you and your organization less effective. This book will give you an understanding of what we’ve built to help you create a business with data as its most robust foundation.
Snowflake delivers the Data Cloud — a global network where thousands of organizations mobilize data with near-unlimited scale, concurrency, and performance. Inside the Data Cloud, organizations unite their siloes of data, easily discover and securely share governed data, and execute diverse analytic workloads. Wherever data or users live, Snowflake delivers a single and seamless experience across multiple public clouds, helping power the data economy. Snowflake’s platform is the engine that powers and provides access to the Data Cloud, creating a solution for data warehousing, data lakes, data engineering, data science, data application development, and data sharing.
