- nojito 4y agoWe did a cost analysis and found databricks and BQ to be cheaper than a similar snowflake build out. I think people are falling into a trap of not considering costs because “it takes care of everything”.

Why would they do that if its so obvious that everyone would just save money from switching to DB. > I think people are falling into a trap This is their product strategy? to take advantage of gullible businesses falling into their trap. Surely building a whole business around customers falling into trap has to backfire at some point.
