Snowflake sees the deployment as a strategic investment in Spain. According to José María Alonso, the company’s regional director for the Mediterranean area, it responds to growing demand for local solutions and will enable companies to work with data and AI more quickly.

The platform will also facilitate application development, the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning tools, and secure access to shared data.
