Unravel Data announced the launch of its Health Check, an AI-driven cost and performance optimization Snowflake Native App available on Snowflake Marketplace.
Joint customers can now complement Snowflake’s built-in cost and performance optimization capabilities with Health Check to get a full analysis on the health of their data ecosystem, with recommendations for production workloads.
Through this collaboration, Unravel Data and Snowflake, the AI Data Cloud company will help joint customers inform business decisions and drive innovation by automatically analyzing Snowflake workloads to provide concrete, actionable recommendations to boost performance. As a Snowflake Native App, customers can install and run the Unravel Health Check directly in their Snowflake account without the need for data movement, accelerating time to value and reducing data silos.
"Enterprises face a significant execution gap in data platform optimization," said Kunal Agarwal, CEO at Unravel Data. "Our free Snowflake Native App bridges this gap by not only identifying inefficiencies, but also provides concrete actions that are easy to implement."
Unravel Health Check is capable of analyzing up to 30 days of Snowflake usage to deliver optimization recommendations across the following workloads:
- Warehouse usage — Rightsizing and consolidation opportunities to reduce costs
- SQL workload — Query enhancements to address inefficiencies in filters, joins, and projections
- Storage usage — Identification of "cold" tables and suboptimal feature usage
Using the combined capabilities of the Snowflake Native App Framework and Snowpark Container Services, Unravel Health Check offers sophisticated analysis while data remains within the customer's Snowflake environment.
"What sets Unravel apart is our focus on actionability," said Shivnath Babu, CTO at Unravel Data. "We deliver specific, implementable guidance that addresses the root causes of inefficiency."
Users can install the Unravel Health Check directly from Snowflake Marketplace and see results within minutes, with no security or privacy concerns as data never has to leave their environment. Unravel Health Check is available now on the Snowflake Marketplace at no cost.
