\nOrganizations strengthen trusted data foundations, optimize operations and support AI initiatives through Snowflake ecosystems, ISG Provider Lens\u00ae<\/sup> report says<\/b><\/p>

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$III<\/a> #AI<\/a>--Enterprises are increasingly using the Snowflake data platform as a central coordination layer for secure data access, collaboration and AI-enabled business operations, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG<\/a>) (Nasdaq: III<\/a>), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm.<\/p><\/a><\/a>

\nThe 2026 ISG Provider Lens\u00ae<\/sup> global Snowflake Ecosystem Partners report finds that Snowflake is evolving from a cloud-native data warehouse into an enterprise environment for AI operationalization. Enterprises increasingly view it as a tool to support trusted data use across distributed environments while addressing architectural complexity, interoperability requirements and the need for AI-ready data foundations. As organizations pursue measurable outcomes from data investments, Snowflake is becoming a key part of broader modernization strategies focused on operational effectiveness and business value.<\/p>

\n\u201cSnowflake is becoming less a destination for enterprise data than a system for making data usable across the business,\u201d said Steve Hall, chief AI officer, ISG. \u201cOrganizations are discovering that the real challenge is not storing information at scale but creating the trust, context and accessibility needed to turn data into consistent decisions and AI-enabled actions.\u201d<\/p>

\nMany enterprises are pursuing controlled modernization strategies with Snowflake that reduce operational disruption and maintain existing reporting structures and business processes. Especially in regulated industries, organizations are migrating workloads from legacy environments using Snowflake\u2019s separation of compute and storage and its alignment with familiar reporting models. These approaches to modernization preserve auditability and continuity. As the migrations mature, enterprises are concentrating on optimization, efficiency and broader data usability.<\/p>

\nEnterprises are also prioritizing AI-ready data environments that support decision-making and scalable analytics. They recognize that successful AI initiatives depend on strong data foundations, metadata management and visible operations. To support these objectives, enterprises are adopting Snowflake capabilities for secure data sharing, data observability and controlled access while embedding lineage management and policy enforcement. These measures improve security and data quality to support responsible AI adoption.<\/p>

\nSnowflake increasingly serves as a data consumption and collaboration layer within multi-platform operating models. Rather than consolidating on a single platform, enterprises are using Snowflake along with other data and analytics platforms to support secure data sharing, operational reporting and analytics. This trend requires interoperable frameworks, seamless data movement and coordinated management across fragmented environments. To manage costs, companies are implementing workload optimization, warehouse right-sizing and continuous performance monitoring within Snowflake environments, ISG says.<\/p>

\n\u201cMany enterprises now operate in environments where no single platform controls the whole data landscape,\u201d said Gowtham Sampath, ISG principal analyst and lead author of the report. \u201cThe Snowflake ecosystem is addressing the need to connect platforms, establish a common business context and make AI outcomes repeatable across complex operating environments.\u201d<\/p>

\nThe report also explores other trends in the Snowflake ecosystem, including rising interest in conversational analytics and growing use of automation to improve platform performance and resource utilization.<\/p>

\nThe report evaluates the capabilities of 33 providers across two quadrants: Modernization and AI\/ML Enablement Services and Managed Data and Optimization Services.<\/p>

\nThe report names Accenture, Capgemini, Cognizant, DXC Technology, EY, HCLTech, Hexaware, Infosys, LTM, NTT DATA, Slalom, TCS and Tredence as Leaders in both quadrants.<\/p>

\nIn addition, Genpact and phData are named as Rising Stars \u2014 companies with a \u201cpromising portfolio\u201d and \u201chigh future potential\u201d by ISG\u2019s definition \u2014 in one quadrant each.<\/p>

\nIn the area of customer experience, Hexaware is named the global ISG CX Star Performer for 2026 among Snowflake ecosystem providers. Hexaware earned the highest customer satisfaction scores in ISG's Voice of the Customer survey, part of the ISG Star of Excellence\u2122 program<\/a>, the premier quality recognition for the technology and business services industry.<\/p>
