theCUBE has analyst-led discussions, real-world insights and more [TheCUBE analysts recap Snowflake Summit & preview the Data + AI Summit]( Last week was all about Snowflake’s generative AI efforts. In this week’s edition of Analysis]( recorded during Snowflake's Data Cloud Summit, the discussion centered around the challenges of creating governance standards across various compute engines, as well as Snowflake's strategy to open-source the Polaris Catalog and the importance of its Horizon solution for advanced governance.   “They’re open-sourcing Polaris, which is really just the technical metadata,” Vellante said. “The somewhat convenient truth for Snowflake is that the standards for governing open table formats like Apache Iceberg are not only lacking, but they’re extremely challenging. You’ve got to herd the cats of all the various compute engine players and agree and then align.”   The episode featured key moments from theCUBE's on-site interview with newly minted Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy, who discussed the company's rapid advancements, including the Cortex AI project and its vision of being a leading data cloud platform.   TheCUBE analysts also examined Snowflake's efforts to build a comprehensive marketplace for data and partners and rationalize margins while competing with software-only data engineering solutions.
