Snowflake is far better then other Could Databases as there is lot to do and simpler while working. Also we can integrate snowflake with Python so we can easily use external sources file to bring the data into snowflake tables. I like the concept of roles in SF which allow us to easily access specific set of data. But working in Snowflake is quite pleasant and have a great user interface.

The favorite aspect of Snowflake is there can be different DB and schema created and we can also reuse the tables from different database into 1 common view which can be integrated to any BI platform and follow the single source of truth concept. Second, We can easily load the data either using the snow SQL or once migrate to python there is no use of manual work we can easily set up a scheduler and load the data in SF tables on timely basis.
