This is what an IT department should look like by the midpoint of 2026.
Just start with one area, like a section of GTM or Procurement, and then repeat over and over. All secured by Cloudflare at every step of the way.

It's not every day that I get to talk about something that I think will change the future of analytics. Today is one of those days.
Introducing: Snowflake Native Amplitude
One of the top requests we get from data leaders is to be able to leverage all the investment they've made in their Data Cloud with Snowflake by having Amplitude run directly on top of the data.
Today we are able to deliver on that promise. Snowflake Native Amplitude is the same Amplitude Analytics our users know and love, completely replatformed on Snowflake. No ETL, no multiple copies of the data, no issues with data drift or mutability. Amplitude querying directly on top of Snowflake via SQL and returning the results in our point and click dashboards.
@curtisbliu and our engineering team spent the last 3 years creating a version of Amplitude Analytics that works with SQL natively on top of Data Warehouses. This required a massive engineering effort. We rebuilt all of our chart querying capabilities, from segmentation, to funnels, to retention, to journeys, to event properties, to every other chart type on top of the data warehouse. We needed to ensure essential features like user timelines, complex segments, microscope, and cohorts worked effectively in the same way as they did on our existing custom Nova database. We then spent a huge amount of time optimizing the hell out of the performance. (Data Warehouses are SLOW if you don't tune them correctly, particularly on critical reports like funnels and user journeys.)
As a result, @Amplitude_HQ is now the first fully replatformed enterprise app on @SnowflakeDB. It just works. Sign up for free and start using it right away!
We also believe in this so much that we are going big right out of the gate with the launch. Anyone can use full Amplitude analytics, up to 5 seats, completely free of charge.
Data leaders have been begging me for this functionality from Amplitude for years. We are excited to finally deliver it today. Read more (and signup!) on Snowflake Native Amplitude here: amplitude.com/blog/snowflake…

Has @Instacart made your day in the past year? 🥕They built systems nearly overnight, using real-time data, to keep food flowing in the U.S. since the start of the pandemic.
See how we helped them put (and keep) their #DataInMotion.

This is handy, but I don't understand @instacart's decision to call it 'arn' when 'A Call to ARNs' was RIGHT THERE.

Having worked for a hospital once in my life, my heart and prayers go out to the nurses, techs, and staff. Incredible courage. Thank you.

RIP @claychristensen, one of my heroes. Hard to think of a better role model in both life and business. We lost you far too soon.
I am excited to announce I have started as VP of Infrastructure at @Instacart. The culture and mission are a great fit and I look forward to helping us make Service Ownership and Reliability world-class for our team. tech.instacart.com/solving-t…

In preparation for starting a new role next week, I had some convos with folks in those roles, did some research and have written up what you should focus on for your first 90 days as a VP Engineering or CTO

We created SRE to work on software robustness and Resilience Engineering to work on how humans create and manage adaptive capacity to learn from the unexpected. We recognize that these are separate and equally important to ensure humane on-call and carrier-grade reliability.
