At the Snowflake Summit 2026 Platform Keynote on June 2 and June 3, Snowflake co-founder Benoit Dageville discussed the company's vision for the "agentic enterprise." He stated that the Snowflake AI Data Cloud is designed to provide a unified platform for AI and data, arguing that this integration creates a "flywheel" where data improves AI performance and AI enhances the data platform. Dageville described the original problems he and co-founder Thierry Cruanes identified in 2012, saying that data was "siloed" and that legacy systems could not scale beyond a single cluster. He said Snowflake was built to unify structured and semi-structured data and to decouple compute from storage. Dageville also highlighted new product features, including Snowflake Postgres, which he said went general availability in February 2026. He announced the introduction of Postgres data mirroring, described as a low-latency method to mirror tables from Postgres into Snowflake, which he said would enter public preview. Additionally, he mentioned interactive workloads running on interactive warehouses and changes to cluster size and key size intended to improve performance. Dageville concluded the keynote by stating that Snowflake moves organizations "from the era of can we to shall we" and encouraged attendees to "dream about what you want to accomplish."
