Story
Materials work at Rio Tinto Group spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United Kingdom. Secure data sharing was splitting across regional habits. Data platform and lines of business asked for a shared way to run partner data exchange without freezing local judgment.
Snowflake (Snowpark) is what they standardized on. Snowflake is a cloud data platform that separates storage and compute so organizations can share, analyze, and govern data across clouds. Rio Tinto Group uses it as the system of record for secure data sharing, with data platform and lines of business as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
