Snowflake is a global data platform where thousands of organizations store and process their data. With Native Apps, the Toronto Engineering Hub is helping transform Snowflake into a data app platform with an app marketplace. The native app framework enables developers to build next-level Data, AI & ML applications, like containerized LLM models that can be used for training and inference. The apps run natively on the Snowflake Cloud within a customer’s account. It’s a revolutionary approach to building and distributing apps.
