dataflow Technologies, Inc., the company behind the open-source data workflow automation platform Prefect, today announced a partnership with Snowflake, the Data Cloud company.
Prefect enables Snowflake customers to automatically populate, extract, and analyze data on top of Snowflake more easily and reliably for faster time to insight.
Prefect’s dataflow automation platform enables data teams to build, run, and monitor data pipelines so they can develop pipelines faster, reduce failures, and increase confidence in their data.
As part of the partnership, Prefect has enhanced its integration with Snowflake to leverage the latest APIs and offer enterprise authentication functionality for both Prefect 1.0 and Prefect Cloud.
Further, there will soon be a dedicated “Collection” of all Snowflake tasks so that data engineers can build and maintain cross-functional Snowflake dataflows more easily.
“Data workflow orchestration is a critical component of the modern data stack. We’re excited by Prefect’s product, community, and vision in this space, As partners, we’ll be able to bring our joint solution to even more data organizations to build workflows faster and increase visibility into their data pipelines.”
said Tarik Dwiek, Head of Technology Alliances at Snowflake.
“Prefect’s mission is to eliminate negative engineering – the ‘defensive’ code that engineers write to handle errors, Our users love Snowflake because it makes data storage and access so easy and seamless. Together with Prefect, we’ve seen hundreds of organizations reduce negative engineering and increase impact.”
said Jeremiah Lowin, Founder and CEO of Prefect.
