Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Fewer stalled items because event streams has a clear owner |
| Risk and compliance | Snowflake Data Cloud is the governed place platform engineers use for real-time operations |
| Capability | New joiners can see how real-time operations actually runs |
Story
National Instruments is based in the United States and runs information technology operations at a scale where event streams cannot live in side channels. Platform engineers were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed real-time operations and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs real-time operations on Snowflake, with Snowflake Data Cloud as the product platform engineers actually open. Snowflake is a cloud data platform that separates storage and compute so organizations can share, analyze, and govern data across clouds. For National Instruments, that means platform engineers can open one workflow, see event streams, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for event streams.
