Cortex Code is getting more powerful across your entire workflow. What’s new: ✨ Now GA in Snowsight ✨ Native Windows support for CLI ✨ Agent Teams for parallel work ✨ New agent skills for building on data Dive in 👇

❄️ The April Snow Report is LIVE ❄️ The Snowflake AI Data Cloud is accelerating this spring, with expanded access to Cortex Code and major interoperability upgrades for Iceberg Tables. It is now even easier to build and govern enterprise AI at scale. 🚀 What’s new Cortex Code, everywhere Our agentic assistant now reaches more developers than ever. It now supports Windows in the CLI and offers deeper integration across Snowflake Workspaces and Notebooks. Iceberg interoperability, unlocked External Engine Reads for Snowflake managed Iceberg Tables are now GA, powered by Horizon APIs. This enables seamless access with Spark and Trino. Next up External Engine Writes are coming soon in Public Preview. 🗓️ Don’t miss what’s ahead • Apr 15: Hands on lab. Build data engineering pipelines in Snowflake Notebooks • Apr 16: Snowflake Connect: Analytics • Apr 21 to 30: Accelerate 2026 virtual series covering Retail, Financial Services and Healthcare and more • Jun 1 to 4: Snowflake Summit in San Francisco. Secure early bird pricing ➡️ Watch the full report to see it all in action and learn why 92% of early AI adopters are already seeing positive ROI. bit.ly/4crgADf

The best data platforms aren’t built by adding more. They’re built by removing what gets in the way. 10 years ago, a Snowflake team wrote a paper on that idea. Today it received the 2026 @sigmod Test-of-Time Award. Revisiting the thinking that shaped Snowflake, straight from our co-founders 👇 bit.ly/4mx255l

Parsing PDFs usually means OCR, custom logic, and brittle pipelines. Cortex Code CLI changes that. Use a single prompt to extract structured data from invoices across formats and load it into Snowflake, ready to query. Get started: bit.ly/3ODvVZt

Will AI disrupt the data platform? What we are seeing at @Snowflake is the opposite: AI is accelerating our business. Just nine weeks ago, we launched Cortex Code, our data coding agent.  Today, 50% of our customers are using it, making Cortex Code the fastest adopted product we’ve ever launched. That’s the power of building something customers truly need. Users are not only more productive with Cortex Code, but crucially, they are also choosing to do more with their data.  Using Cortex Code, early adopters, on average, increased their consumption of Snowflake by 11%! This is what happens when AI is deeply integrated into the place where data work already lives. It does not replace the platform. It makes the platform dramatically more powerful. Very proud of the team for the speed of execution, and even more excited by the customer response.

👋 That's a wrap on Iceberg Summit! Thank you to those who joined us. We're happy we were able to meet in person with community members making data interoperability a reality at Iceberg Summit. We are most excited about how the Iceberg spec is evolving to better support more critical use cases in v4, and we hope to see you again next year.
