[In a recent survey](https://www.nextpathway.com/2021-state-of-cloud-migration-survey), we asked more than 1,000 IT professionals to comment on the features of Snowflake that they find the most compelling. More than 30% appreciated the multi-cluster shared data architecture; 40% were split between the ability to scale without impacting performance and data sharing through Snowflake’s Data Marketplace. The balance (10%) liked the low maintenance aspect of Snowflake. These capabilities, along with Snowflake’s innovative pricing model, will continue to drive more customers to Snowflake.

In our business, we see a lot of interest in moving complex workloads to Snowflake. That’s why we have invested heavily in automating the migration of vast amounts of data to Snowflake from a variety of legacy sources, including Netezza, Teradata, and Hadoop. Most of these workloads are further complicated with ETL jobs, which our technology *SHIFT™* also automatically translates. We provide customers with two options to migrate their legacy ETL pipelines to the cloud: migrate ETL pipelines to your cloud target or migrate to cloud-native ETL frameworks.

We are excited for the future of Snowflake and are anxiously awaiting the Snowflake Summit in June 8-10.
