Let us bring you to the top of the data mountain.

Apache Spark is a significant force multiplier in the data landscape. Its complexity, however, needs a high operational overhead which leads to cost, challenging performance optimization, and inconsistent governance and security policies.

To address those limitations while further enhancing the overall capabilities of the execution model enabled by Spark, Snowflake has introduced Snowpark, which provides Spark-like DataFrame functionality within a fully managed, secure, and scalable environment.

Infostrux brings its prescriptive approach to help you move your Spark workloads to Snowpark swiftly and reliably.
