Overview
Vinay, a Data Engineer at GlobalMart, was assigned to a new project that required working with Snowflake. Since he was new to it, he approached Rahul, a Senior Architect, for guidance. Rahul walked him through Snowflake’s Multicluster Shared Data Architecture and its hierarchical object model. He also explained the different Snowflake editions, best practices for cost optimization, and available connectivity options. By the end of their discussion, Vinay had a strong foundation to begin his Snowflake journey.
