I'm surprised to see only a cursory mention of Snowflake in this article. In my experience, they are really the pioneers of the new distributed, cloud-first database. They really enabled large scale relational data warehouses, and are still miles ahead of even the big cloud players.

What is it you like about them? IIRC, their base plan starts at $1500/mo, so it's a high end offering that I haven't played with too much.
