In addition to developing joint strategic solutions, Snowplow is excited to join Databricks Partner Connect later this summer, making it easier for Databricks customers to take advantage of Snowplow’s fully compliant AI-ready behavioral data and real-time event streaming. All of which can be accessed directly from the Databricks platform.
“We’re excited to be investing in Snowplow as we deepen our partnership. Collecting, analyzing, and acting on proprietary data is critical for companies to achieve a competitive edge, and the Snowplow platform has been at the forefront of enabling organizations to capitalize on behavioral data,” said Andrew Ferguson, VP, Corporate Development & Ventures at Databricks. “We look forward to featuring Snowplow in Partner Connect later this year, making it even easier for customers to discover and access their offering.”
“Since establishing our partnership with Databricks, our shared customers have been effective in elevating their first-party customer data to differentiate their AI and Personalization strategies,” said Alex Dean, CEO and Co-founder of Snowplow. “This investment represents our shared commitment to support more organizations to develop composable Customer Data Platform (CDP) use cases on the Lakehouse platform.”
