DISKOVER + SNOWFLAKE

Send Snowflake only the files that matter.

Snowflake unstructured data starts with choosing what belongs there. Diskover indexes every file across your storage in place, describes it with rich metadata, such as project, owner, age, and sensitivity signal, and sends the curated metadata into your Snowflake account as queryable rows. File content stays on your storage.

WHY DISKOVER WITH SNOWFLAKE

Most unstructured data is not ready for AI. Yet.

The files are there, on file shares and object storage, but nobody can say which ones are current, who owns them, or whether they are safe to use. Diskover catalogs every file in place, enriches it with business metadata, and delivers the right ones to Snowflake as queryable rows, so Cortex Search and Cortex Agents work from business context, not file paths.

WORKS WITH Cortex Search • Cortex Agents • Horizon Catalog • SQL

Query your whole file estate.

Every file becomes a row in Snowflake. Join it with your business tables in SQL, for example, to report storage cost by project or find the data behind a model.

Cut costs. Send only what counts.

Leave duplicates, scratch, and stale versions on storage. Send only curated, high-value sets to Snowflake, so you pay only for the data your teams use.

Keep context with every file.

Owner, project, lineage, and sensitivity signals travel with each record. Teams can trace every answer back to its source file and keep sensitive files out of AI.

HOW IT WORKS

From files on storage to rows in Snowflake.

Connect.

Diskover connects to file shares, object stores, and cloud buckets, and indexes them in place.

Explore the architecture

Curate.

Diskover adds business context to every file and builds datasets by any metadata.

Explore the metadata catalog

Automate.

Policies keep the curated sets current at every scan, so new files join the right dataset by rule.

Explore data orchestration

Activate.

In Snowflake, curated metadata is ready for SQL, BI, and AI, next to your structured data.

FOR AI AND ANALYTICS

Better data in. Better answers out.

Snowflake brings agentic AI to your data. Diskover makes sure the unstructured part of that data is described, filtered, and traceable before it gets there. Curated metadata arrives as tables your teams query with SQL, and every record keeps its lineage back to the file on storage.

Sending fewer, better files is the simplest way to keep storage and compute costs down.

FAQ

Common questions.

How does Diskover get unstructured data into Snowflake?

Diskover indexes files where they live and sends the metadata of a curated set into Snowflake as rows. The files themselves stay on your storage until a workflow calls for them.

Does Diskover copy our files into Snowflake?

No. Diskover sends metadata and context, such as path, owner, tags, and lineage. Your teams decide which files, if any, move next.

Can we buy Diskover through Snowflake?

Yes. Diskover is listed on the Snowflake Marketplace.

What can we do with file metadata in Snowflake?

Join it with business data to report storage cost by project, find data for AI training, check what a dataset contains, and track growth over time.

Does Diskover work with Snowflake Cortex?

Yes. Diskover delivers curated file metadata as queryable rows, and Snowflake fetches file content on demand, so Cortex Search and Cortex Agents get exactly the content they need.

How do we start?
