Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is a popular option for storing data, as it allows users to easily set up and operate multiple databases in the cloud. However, when analytics are required, moving data to a data warehouse is necessary. Snowflake is a software-as-a-service platform that can quickly and flexibly process all types of data, from unstructured to streaming. A data warehouse creates a central repository of information for analyzing data, enabling insights into customer sales data, retail transactions, and log data. Snowflake provides benefits such as cloud agnosticism, unlimited scalability, complete ANSI SQL language support, and compliance with regulatory requirements. To move data from RDS to Snowflake, users can manually export the database snapshot or use an extract, transform, load (ETL) tool like Airbyte, Fivetran, or Hevo Data. The automated method using Hevo Data provides a quick setup and allows for efficient loading of incremental data.
