Qualified customers who use Snowflake Data Sharing will automatically be eligible for the rebate program beginning December 1. Snowflake customers, who share data as “data providers” with external organizations (data consumers), will automatically receive a credit rebate equal to 10 percent of their data consumers’ usage when those consumers perform operations on a data provider’s shared data inside Snowflake’s data warehouse-as-a-service. Snowflake customers already get the most powerful, flexible and cost-effective data warehouse. Now they get additional savings, while securely sharing governed data in real time with qualified, third-party data consumers.

Other Snowflake innovations include instant elasticity, per-second pricing and multi-cloud availability. Modern data sharing functionality, which is uniquely available on Snowflake, allows organizations of any size to participate in the Data Economy via a data-sharing network enabled by Snowflake.
