Share in focus: ❄Snowflake ($SNOW) Data platform, AI infrastructure, upselling machine.

💡 What does Snowflake do?


Snowflake offers a cloud-native platform for companies to store, analyze, share and monetize data - regardless of the cloud provider (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud).


Customers can access all data with a standardized architecture without having to manage infrastructure themselves. This makes Snowflake particularly attractive for modern, data-driven companies.


🔧 Products & platform


đŸ”” Snowflake Data Cloud

→ Combines Data Lake, Data Warehouse & Analytics in one scalable platform.

→ No more silos - one data foundation for all workloads.


đŸ”” Cortex AI (greatly expanded since 2025)

→ Agent AI for companies: Data analysis, automation & evaluation with natural language - also for non-tech users.

→ Goal: "AI at the touch of a button" for all business departments.


đŸ”” Snowflake Marketplace

→ Companies can trade data products or enrich their AI models with external data sets.

→ Strengthens platform logic - with network effects and monetization.


đŸ”” Industry solutions

→ e.g. for financial service providers, healthcare, media, retail.

→ Tailors the platform specifically to industry-specific use cases.

📈 Why Snowflake is interesting


✅ Strong customer loyalty

✅ Scalable platform

→ Once integrated, companies are strongly committed to the data cloud.

→ High switching costs & long-term upsell possible.


AI as a catalyst

→ Cortex AI & the Data Marketplace are drivers for future growth.

→ Companies are currently looking for solutions to integrate their own data into AI workflows - Snowflake delivers exactly that.


Cloud agnostic

→ Full freedom for customers, independent of AWS, Azure or Google Cloud.

→ This reduces lock-in risks and increases market reach.

⚠ Risks & weaknesses


- Not GAAP-profitable: Still losses despite strong cash flow.

- High valuation: P/E ~20 → ambitious in a volatile tech environment.

- Competition: e.g. from Databricks, AWS Redshift, Google BigQuery.

- Price fluctuations: Since IPO 2020 partly strong volatility - but recently stable trend again.


🧠 Conclusion


Snowflake is more than a data warehouse - it is becoming the central hub for data-driven companies with a focus on AI, analysis & monetization.


The platform approach with network & lock-in effects, paired with strong operational metrics (NRR, Rule of 40, Magic Number), makes Snowflake an exciting long-term asset in the cloud/AI sector.

Money must finally be earned here and a long-term trend must be established in order to invest here in the long term, the model is right, only the rest is still missing

@schokosahne That's the nature of investing in growth. If you wanted to, you could be profitable for a long time.

@Derspekulant1 Of course, depending on the investor's risk awareness, you will lose a few percent if you wait. You're absolutely right about that, of course.

@schokosahne Amazon has easily not reported any profits for 15 years. Did you think this thinking about growth stocks was off the table?

@Matzke But Amazon had a castle moat and the business model was supported by large shareholders, i.e. the equity ratio was not important, but the investors were strategic partners. The market made it happen, but this model does not always work and increases the risk. This is why quality growth stocks also operate with reserves, debt ratios and the highest possible equity. I look at it from the point of view of a business economist and an investor who doesn't want to burn his capital, but of course you can jump on any hype, in the long term no profits will lead to insolvency.

The good thing is that the rule of financial equilibrium applies to all companies and nobody can hide from it.

@schokosahne free cash flow in Q1 amounted to 349 million US dollars

@Matzke there is no minus in front of the free cash flow that this company has been increasing from quarter to quarter since 2021! Or do I have the wrong figures?
