The group's Business Intelligence team delivers automated systems and analytical content that democratize data and help people make better decisions about how to run their business. The team had outgrown its legacy data storage and reporting solution and needed a centralized data repository for streamlined, faster reporting, and a data warehouse that could integrate with external data visualization tools.

"Matillion ETL for Snowflake checks all of the boxes for us," said Tim McDonough, business intelligence manager, Cisco Cloud Security. "Because it's built for modern cloud data warehouses, we can use native Snowflake functionality to transform our data. Operationally, we are light years ahead of where we were with our legacy solution, and our Business Intelligence team can now easily deploy modeled data sets for reporting and analysis. With Matillion, we have the capability to meet our future data needs."
