Snowflake Chairman and CEO, Frank Slootman, and NVIDIA’s Founder
and CEO, Jensen Huang, kicked off the event on Monday, June 26 with
a fireside chat discussing the impact AI, large language models
(LLMs), and GPU-accelerated computing are having on every industry
and business model. Snowflake and NVIDIA also unveiled that they
are partnering to provide businesses of all sizes with an
accelerated path to create customized generative AI applications
using their own proprietary data, all securely within the Snowflake
Data Cloud. This was followed by the Tuesday, June 27 Snowflake
Summit Opening Keynote, which featured Slootman, Snowflake
Co-Founder and President of Product, Benoit Dageville, Snowflake
SVP of Product, Christian Kleinerman, and Snowflake SVP and
Co-Founder of Neeva, Sridhar Ramaswamy, as they revealed the
expanded capabilities and product innovations advancing the Data
Cloud:
- Snowpark Container Services: Snowflake introduced
Snowpark Containers Services, currently in private preview,
enabling developers to deploy, manage, and scale generative AI,
full-stack apps, and more — including configurable infrastructure
options such as GPUs — all securely within Snowflake. Snowflake
customers will also get access to an expansive set of third-party
services including LLMs, Notebooks, MLOps tools, and more within
their account.
- Document AI: Snowflake launched a new
Snowflake-developed LLM, currently in private preview, built from
the recent acquisition of Applica and its pioneering generative AI
technology, to help customers understand documents and extract
insights from unstructured data without machine learning
expertise.
- Iceberg Tables: With Iceberg Tables, in private
preview soon, organizations can work with data in their own storage
in the Apache Iceberg format, whether that data is managed by
Snowflake or managed externally, while still benefiting from
Snowflake’s ease of use, performance, and unified governance.
- Snowflake Performance Index: Snowflake regularly
passes on savings to customers in the form of performance
improvements. The new Snowflake Performance Index (SPI) provides
increased transparency and metrics around Snowflake’s ongoing
performance improvements, revealing that query duration has
improved by 15 percent1 for stable customer workloads since
Snowflake began tracking this metric over the last eight months —
reinforcing how Snowflake continues to advance price per
performance for customers.
- Snowflake Native App Framework: Snowflake
unveiled that the Snowflake Native App Framework, currently in
public preview on AWS, is now available for developers to build and
test Snowflake Native Apps, with over 25 new Snowflake Native Apps
now available for customers to install from Snowflake Marketplace
and run against data in their Snowflake account.
- Snowflake Marketplace Advancements: Data
exclusively available in the Data Cloud on Snowflake Marketplace is
expanding with Cybersyn providing proprietary economic datasets for
corporations, investors, and governments. To enable customers to
effortlessly tap into this expanding library of data offerings,
Snowflake also introduced the Marketplace Capacity Drawdown
Program, generally available, allowing customers to seamlessly buy
data and Snowflake Native Apps with their Snowflake Capacity
commitment.
- Improved Developer Experiences and Expanded Streaming
Capabilities: Snowflake highlighted a set of new
capabilities targeted at developers – Snowpark ML APIs for more
efficient model development, currently in public preview; Snowpark
Model Registry, currently in private preview, for scalable MLOps;
Streamlit in Snowflake advancements, public preview coming soon, to
turn models into interactive apps; and advanced streaming
capabilities.
On Wednesday, June 28 Snowflake hosted its Builder’s Keynote
with Dageville, Snowflake Director of Product and Co-Founder of
Streamlit, Amanda Kelly, Snowflake Director of Product Management,
James Malone, and several members of Snowflake’s developer
relations team. The keynote highlighted how organizations can go

apps, and featured testimonials from customers EDF Energy and The
Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). To round out
the conference, Kleinerman moderated a keynote panel on Thursday,
June 29 featuring Landing AI’s Founder & CEO Andrew Ng,

Research Jonathan Cohen, discussing their predictions on the impact
