Snowflake

Snowflake appears in Founder Mode: Kashish Gupta, Founder and co-CEO of Hightouch as one of the enterprise data-warehouse systems that Hightouch customers already used as their customer-data foundation. Kashish Gupta uses Snowflake to explain why Hightouch’s market was not simply another customer-data store: enterprises wanted to activate data from their own database rather than copy it into each downstream marketing platform.

In the source, Snowflake is part of the infrastructure backdrop for Enterprise Data Activation. The value shifts from collecting the data to safely connecting governed warehouse data into advertising, lifecycle marketing, and sales workflows.
