Leaving Legacy Data Warehouses Behind: NorthBay Deepens Its Snowflake Partnership

NorthBay Solutions is deepening its work with Snowflake as an AI Data Cloud Select Services Partner. Snowflake customers already turn to NorthBay to modernize legacy data warehouses onto AWS — and this expanded partnership sharpens that focus, pairing NorthBay's AWS delivery depth with a dedicated Snowflake practice covering migration, data engineering, and generative AI enablement.

Legacy data warehouses are running out of road

More organizations are moving away from on-premises data warehouses every year, and for good reason: legacy infrastructure is expensive to run, slow to scale, and increasingly unable to keep pace with modern analytics and AI workloads. Snowflake has become the standard for organizations making that move, letting them ingest, store, and analyze massive amounts of data without managing the underlying infrastructure themselves.

The challenge most customers face isn't deciding to modernize — it's doing so without disrupting the AWS environments they've already invested in.

Migrating and modernizing on Snowflake, built for AWS

This is where NorthBay's dual expertise matters. As an AWS Premier Consulting Partner and Snowflake AI Data Cloud Select Services Partner, NorthBay helps customers spin up Snowflake on AWS with the right governance and security models from day one, migrate legacy data warehouses and data lakes, and modernize data engineering and ETL/ELT pipelines — all architected specifically for AWS rather than treated as a generic cloud target.

From there, NorthBay helps customers put their Snowflake investment to work: building BI and reporting foundations, establishing master data management, and enabling real-time streaming and analytics at scale, with generative AI enablement via Snowflake Cortex as a growing part of the practice. NorthBay also works to continuously optimize Snowflake credit spend and query performance as usage scales.

NorthBay's Snowflake work already spans some of the most demanding data environments in regulated and high-scale industries. For a national healthcare analytics provider running compliance-critical HEDIS® reporting, a hybrid Aurora-to-Snowflake migration cut analytics pipeline runtime by up to 40% with zero data discrepancies during the transition. For a fast-growing mobile ad-tech company, introducing Snowflake as the central data warehouse helped scale a real-time ad platform to 35 million daily ad impressions, with a roadmap toward 300 million.

"Deepening our partnership with Snowflake as an AI Data Cloud Select Services Partner is a natural evolution of our commitment to accelerating cloud-first innovation. By combining our AWS delivery depth with Snowflake's AI Data Cloud, we are empowering our customers to move beyond legacy limitations—turning their data into a true engine for generative AI and real-time analytics."
