Meanwhile #Fabric offers a very predictable TCO, similar and often faster performance than Databricks and is tightly integrated with Power BI and the Microsoft ecosystem. And best of all, depending on the shape of your workload can work out to be significantly cheaper than either platform! 🧐 Why do these comparisons focus on specific query workloads to compare cost? You need to look at the big picture! No one runs up a Snowflake or Databricks instance to run a couple of queries.
I spend much less time thinking about Snowflake these days. But I thought I'd highlight this blog by Robert Thompson who does excellent technical work at T-Mobile. The benchmark is on a publicly available dataset of 1.6B rows. I wonder which platform offers much lower TCO? https://lnkd.in/gYsuddrf
