Wow! Snowflake lands massive $263 million investment
Have I said recently I LOVE my job?
Well I do, and I love working with the awesome technology that is the Snowflake DWaaS as well as all the really smart and cool people that make up this innovative and ever growing company.
As you may have heard, we had a HUGE week with the announcement of our Series E round of funding ($263 million) and a valuation of $1.5 billion.
