Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW), the AI Data Cloud company, today announced at its annual user conference, Snowflake Summit 2025, the next evolution of compute innovations that deliver faster performance, enhanced usability, and stronger price-performance value — raising the bar for modern data infrastructure. This includes Standard Warehouse – Generation 2 (Gen2) (now generally available), an enhanced version of Snowflake’s virtual Standard Warehouse with next-generation hardware and additional enhancements to deliver 2.1x1 faster analytics performance and 1.9x2 faster analytics performance than Managed Spark. In addition, Snowflake introduced Snowflake Adaptive Compute (now in private preview), a new compute service that lowers the burden of resource management by maximizing efficiency through automatic resource sizing and sharing. Warehouses created using Adaptive Compute, known as Adaptive Warehouses, accelerate performance for users without driving up costs, ultimately redefining data management in the era of AI.
