ISG to Evaluate Snowflake Ecosystem Partners

Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm, has launched a research study examining provider capabilities within the fast-growing Snowflake services ecosystem.

The study results will be published in a comprehensive ISG Provider Lens report, called Snowflake Ecosystem Partners, scheduled to be released in June 2026. The report will cover companies offering Snowflake-focused modernization and AI and ML enablement capabilities, along with ongoing managed data and optimization services.

Enterprise buyers will be able to use information from the report to evaluate their current vendor relationships, potential new engagements and available offerings, while ISG advisors use the information to recommend providers to the firm’s buy-side clients.

Snowflake has emerged as a critical data platform that redefines how enterprises store, process and activate data for analytics and AI. Its cloud-native architecture offers improved scalability, flexibility and cost efficiency, helping enterprises move beyond the constraints of traditional data warehouses. Globally, enterprises are increasingly adopting this platform to unify structured, semi-structured and unstructured data under a single governance and security model. This approach streamlines complex data operations while enabling faster insights and AI-driven innovation.

“Enterprises are prioritizing providers that offer automation maturity, FinOps discipline and robust governance,” said Aman Munglani, senior director and principal analyst at ISG. “Using Snowflake-native tools such as Snowpark, Cortex AI and Native Apps enables them to achieve meaningful, measurable improvements in data management.”

ISG has distributed surveys to more than 100 Snowflake ecosystem partners. Working in collaboration with ISG’s global advisors, the research team will produce two quadrants representing the Snowflake offerings the typical enterprise is buying, based on ISG’s experience working with its clients. The two quadrants are:

• Modernization and AI/ML Enablement Services, evaluating providers that deliver end-to-end strategy, advisory and implementation support to help enterprises get the most from their Snowflake investments. These providers are assessed on their ability to guide data modernization efforts and facilitate integration of AI and ML into operations.
• Managed Data and Optimization Services, assessing providers offering management, monitoring and optimization services for Snowflake environments. These providers should specialize in managing Snowflake infrastructure across cloud platforms and offer training and change management initiatives.

Geographically focused reports from the study will cover the global Snowflake ecosystem and examine products and services available worldwide. ISG analysts Gowtham Kumar Sampath and Hemangi Patel will serve as authors of the report.
