CData Software, a leading provider of data connectivity and integration solutions, announced the launch of the CData Snowflake Integration Accelerator, a comprehensive solution designed to simplify and accelerate data integration for Snowflake customers. With this new offering, enterprises can reduce integration build times by up to 90%, enabling faster insights and maximizing the value of their Snowflake investments.
Snowflake’s Data Cloud is a powerful platform for unifying data, analytics, and AI workloads. However, many organizations face challenges integrating data from diverse enterprise systems into Snowflake due to the complexity of traditional ETL processes and the necessity of integrating complex systems spanning on-premises, cloud-based, and private cloud infrastructures. The CData Snowflake Integration Accelerator addresses these challenges by providing no-code data ingestion, transformations and live connectivity to Snowflake data. The solution stands out from other integration options by offering unparalleled deployment flexibility and ETL automation, alongside scalable and transparent pricing that is independent of data volume.
“Snowflake is transforming how organizations manage and analyze data, but the complexity of integrating enterprise data in hybrid and multi-cloud environments can slow down time-to-value,” said Manish Patel, Chief Product Officer, CData. “With the CData Snowflake Integration Accelerator, we’re empowering organizations to unlock the full potential of their Snowflake investments by simplifying data integration for real-world tech stacks.”

Overview of Snowflake Solution Toolkits
The CData Snowflake Integration Accelerator includes three purpose-built toolkits designed to automate data integration processes and provide live access to Snowflake data:
- Snowflake Ingestion Toolkit: Accelerate data ingestion into Snowflake by 10x with no-code Change Data Capture (CDC) from over 270 sources, including APIs, databases, and SaaS platforms. This toolkit supports live integration from sales, marketing, financial, and other business systems via Snowflake external tables, with additional support for Iceberg Tables and staging.
- Live Snowflake Data Access Toolkit: Enable standards-based live connectivity to Snowflake from any application, with native integration capabilities for Microsoft tools like SSAS, SSRS, and SSIS. This toolkit also supports integration with Salesforce through Lightning Connect, enabling seamless access to Snowflake data across the Salesforce ecosystem.
- Cortex AI Integration Toolkit: Ingest from structured and semi-structured data with real-time connectivity to power AI-driven workflows in Snowflake Cortex AI. With instant AI-ready data pipelines from any enterprise source, Cortex AI has immediate access to prepared data for advanced analytics and decision-making. The toolkit also supports programmatic orchestration of data pipelines, enabling agentic models and integration with Cortex AI’s AI-driven insights, while real-time data processing with Change Data Capture (CDC) ensures that Cortex AI operates on the most up-to-date data.
Customer Success: Empower Services
Empower Services, a leading provider of healthcare analytics, leveraged the CData Snowflake Integration Accelerator to transform their data pipelines. By replacing brittle, manual workflows with CData’s no-code solution, Empower reduced job runtimes by 91% from 90 minutes to just 8 minutes and eliminated manual table mapping. This enabled faster data ingestion into Snowflake and positioned Empower to support modern, AI-enabled use cases like Streamlit applications and Cortex AI for clinician documentation.
“What I really appreciate about CData is how it pushes through table creation and eliminates so much of the manual work I had to do with SSIS and Talend. It’s just a better, faster solution,” said Ken Carter, Senior Director of Data and Analytics at Empower Services.
