DataRobot and Snowflake Unveil Partnership to Accelerate Adoption of AI in the Enterprise

New DataRobot Connector Enables Instant Access to Data in Snowflake, Empowering Users to Make Better Predictions

Boston, November 8, 2018 — DataRobot, the creator of the automated machine learning category, today announced a partnership with Snowflake Computing, the data warehouse built for the cloud, to accelerate the adoption of AI in the enterprise. Through a product-level integration, the partnership will allow DataRobot users to bring in data from the Snowflake data warehouse that delivers the performance, simplicity, concurrency, and affordability not possible with other data warehouses.

The DataRobot automated machine learning platform empowers business analysts and data scientists of all skill levels to build and deploy highly accurate machine learning models in a fraction of the time of traditional modeling methods. Snowflake provides an enterprise data warehouse built for the cloud that allows all business users to gain limitless insight from their data at a fraction of the cost of legacy solutions. With the new DataRobot connector for Snowflake, customers have direct access to data within Snowflake to undertake AI and machine learning initiatives.

Outsell leverages the power of DataRobot and Snowflake to drive an industry-leading AI-driven marketing automation solution based on rich relationships and meaningful analytics mined from easily scalable business data sources. Outsell uses both technologies to ensure it is selecting the right individualized content and channels to effectively communicate to consumers as well as providing actionable consumer intelligence to their clients.

Matt Kristo, Insights Manager at Outsell, said, “Prior to engaging with DataRobot and Snowflake, we had an ever-increasing need for models and data processing power and it was limiting our ability to drive the product forward as quickly as we would like. The DataRobot and Snowflake tools have unlocked our ability to control the modeling process end-to-end without adding more data scientists, helping us accelerate our adoption of machine learning to drive top and bottom line business results.”

The Snowflake data warehouse makes it easy to amass all of an organization’s data, and then access that data in DataRobot to derive deeper data-driven predictive insights for all business users. This makes it easier for organizations to extend machine learning and AI initiatives throughout the entire business, regardless of department or technical expertise.

“Businesses today know they need to embrace AI to stay ahead. Our partnership with Snowflake makes it easier than ever for users of all skill levels to access data and build, tweak, and deploy machine learning models to make business decisions,” said Seann Gardiner, SVP of Business Development at DataRobot. “By leveraging the collective power of Snowflake and DataRobot, organizations can now produce significant business impact from machine learning.  We’re excited to be working with another market leader to give our joint customers a marked competitive advantage in the marketplace.”

Snowflake VP of Alliances, Walter Aldana added, “We’re committed to providing our customers with the tools they need to empower data-driven organizations — an imperative for every organization today. The partnership with DataRobot extends our ability to provide customers with access to automated machine learning technology that will uncover business-driving predictive insights.”
