I’m delighted to announce I’m selected to speak at the 2019 edition of SQLGrillen DataGrillen. This is a German conference with the catchy tagline “Data, beer und Bratwurst”. I will be talking about the cloud datawarehouse Snowflake (hosted on Azure). The abstract:
The era of cloud data warehousing has finally begun. Gone are the days where you had to provision expensive servers and spend days configuring and tweaking to get the technical details right. Using cloud infrastructure, we can skip past the technical set-up and start loading data immediately.
Snowflake is a vendor offering a native cloud data warehouse, hosted on Azure. In this session, we’ll introduce you to this new technology and explain the important concepts to get you started. Walking out of this session, you’ll have all the knowledge you need to embark a project with Snowflake.
The schedule looks very promising with speakers from all over the world. Normally I’d urge readers to register for the event, but it’s already sold out. You can however register for the waiting list. If a place opens up, you might be one of the lucky people!
