Could you say more about the relative market position of your two companies?

I don't know the market at all, but Snowflake is certainly large and successful (IPOed in 2020, $50bn market cap). I could readily imagine that a company doing so well might not feel the incentive to improve very strongly. Or that they might see themselves more as a sales/marketing-led company than one where technical quality is a key driver. Whereas you folks as a challenger would have a lot more incentive to differentiate yourselves.

You could probably google my username and find out, but I’ll say we’re bigger than Snowflake and are very much entrenched in the enterprise database market :)
