Key Takeaways

Introduces Snowflake for building applications, data pipelines, and AI models and workflows

Original Description

This course introduces learners to Snowflake as a platform for building applications, data pipelines, and AI models and workflows. It takes them from zero Snowflake knowledge all the way to creating user-defined functions, using a Snowflake Cortex LLM function, editing a Streamlit app, and more. The course unfolds in three parts: First, participants learn to use Snowflake’s core objects such as virtual warehouses, stages, and databases. Then they learn about slightly more advanced objects and features such as time travel, cloning, user-defined functions, and stored procedures. Finally, they’re introduced to Snowflake’s capabilities for data engineering, generative AI, machine learning, and app development. Learners come away equipped to start building with Snowflake and to continue their Snowflake learning journeys. This course is a prerequisite for upcoming Snowflake courses on data engineering, AI, and apps.
