Containers, large language models (LLMs), and GPUs provide a foundation for developers to build services for what Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang describes as an “AI Factory.” Snowflake’s investment in container services demonstrates how the company has transformed from its roots as a data warehouse service provider to a data analytics company and now as a company that offers a platform for container services and native application development.

With SCS, Snowflake may offer services that relieve much of the operations burdens that slowed teams in synchronizing data.

Briski said Snowflake customers may use large foundation models built on Nvidia’s offerings.

“We train a smaller model that the large language model uses so you have this customization model,” Briski said.
