Snowflake Gives You Speed. Incept Gives You Trust.

We implement, integrate, and govern Snowflake environments, ensuring the data your organization queries, shares, and acts on is accurate, classified, and trusted. Because fast access to bad data is not an advantage.

[SERVICES]
Snowflake Services that go beyond Deployment
We implement Snowflake with governance at the foundation, not as an afterthought. From initial architecture to AI-powered data quality and governed access management, we ensure your Snowflake environment delivers data your organization can trust.
Implementation
Snowflake Implementation and Migration
End-to-end Snowflake implementation and cloud data warehouse migration. We architect your Snowflake environment from the ground up: account configuration, role hierarchy, virtual warehouse design, database schema, and security framework, with governance built into the foundation from day one.
DATA GOVERNANCE
Data Governance on Snowflake
Establish metadata management, data classification, access policies, and stewardship workflows within your Snowflake environment. We implement governance frameworks that ensure every schema, table, and column is documented, classified, and protected.
DATA Integration
Enterprise Data Integration for Snowflake
Design and implement the integration architecture connecting Snowflake to your source systems, data management platforms, and analytics tools. We build governed ingestion pipelines that ensure data arrives in Snowflake clean, classified, and traceable from the point of origin.
AI & DATA QUALITY
AI-Powered Data Quality on Snowflake
We build AI-native DQ frameworks on Snowflake that convert natural language business requirements into executable SQL DQ rules using Snowflake Cortex. Completeness, accuracy, validity, consistency, timeliness, and uniqueness enforced across your full dataset, not just samples.
GOVERNED ACCESS
Governed Data Delivery and Access Lifecycle
End-to-end governance of who accesses your Snowflake data, through what approval process, and when that access is automatically revoked. We implement a full data delivery lifecycle using CDMP, CAI, and ServiceNow, ensuring every data access request is validated, approved, delivered, and tracked.
OPTIMIZATION
Performance and Cost Optimization
Analyze and optimize your Snowflake workloads for performance and cost efficiency. We review warehouse sizing, query performance, clustering strategies, and data retention policies to ensure your Snowflake investment delivers maximum value without unnecessary spend.
DATA SHARING
Data Sharing and Marketplace Governance
Implement governance frameworks for Snowflake Data Sharing and Marketplace use cases. We help organizations share data externally or across business units with the access controls, data classification, and consent management required to do so safely and compliantly.
[GOVERNED DATA DELIVERY]
A Full Lifecycle for Governed Access to Snowflake
Data governance does not end when data lands in Snowflake. We implement an end-to-end governed data delivery lifecycle that controls who accesses your Snowflake data, through what approval process, and when that access is revoked.

Data Marketplace Request

Data consumers submit structured access requests through Informatica CDMP, the enterprise data marketplace. Every request captures the requester identity, the target dataset, the intended use, and the required access duration. No ad hoc access. No undocumented requests.

Governance Gates and Steward Approval

Each request passes through configurable governance gates within CDMP. Data stewards review requests against ownership policies, data classification levels, and access standards before any data moves. The governance record is created and tracked in the catalog from this point.

CAI Validation and ServiceNow Ticket Creation

Informatica CAI (Cloud Application Integration) validates the approved request: identity verification, duplicate check, and policy compliance. A ServiceNow service ticket is automatically created for every validated request, establishing a full ITSM audit trail alongside the governance record.

ServiceNow Approval Workflow

The ServiceNow workflow routes the request through the appropriate approval chain: manager approval, data owner sign-off, and security review where required. Both approved and rejected paths generate OAuth2 callbacks to CAI, updating the CDMP governance record in real time.

Governed Delivery to Snowflake

For approved requests, CAI orchestrates governed delivery to the designated Snowflake environment: role assignment, object-level grants, virtual warehouse access, and row-level security configuration where applicable. Delivery is scoped, documented, and fully traceable back to the original request.

Automated Access Revocation

Three triggers activate automated revocation: access expiry at the agreed end date, Active Directory leaver detection when a user exits the organization, and manual revocation by a data steward or security team. Revocation cleans up all Snowflake permissions and updates the CDMP governance record. No orphaned access. No manual cleanup.
[INCEPT ACCELERATOR]
Incept's AI-Powered
DQ Agent for Snowflake
Natural language in. Validated, executable DQ rules out. Built natively on Snowflake Cortex.
Colorful gradient
Incept's AI-Powered DQ Agent is a pre-built, production-tested data quality accelerator built natively on Snowflake. It converts natural language business requirements into executable, SQL-based DQ rules using Snowflake Cortex, eliminating the dependency on SQL expertise for DQ rule authoring and dramatically accelerating the time from data quality requirement to active validation.

Component 1

Natural Language to DQ Rules

Business stakeholders describe data quality requirements in plain language. The DQ Agent's LLM-driven engine combines business metadata, live Snowflake data samples, and user context to generate precise, executable SQL DQ rules automatically. No SQL expertise required from the business.
Component 2

Full DQ Dimension Coverage

The DQ Agent generates and enforces rules across six data quality dimensions: completeness, accuracy, validity, consistency, timeliness, and uniqueness. Rules are applied across entire datasets, not samples, ensuring full coverage without gaps.
Component 3

Snowflake Cortex Intelligence

The DQ Agent is built natively on Snowflake Cortex, using its intelligent models for contextual rule recommendations and understanding of data patterns. No external AI infrastructure required. Rule intelligence runs where your data already lives.
Component 4

Automated DQ Scoring and Catalog Publishing

The DQ Agent computes DQ scores automatically and publishes results to your enterprise data catalog, making quality metrics visible in governance platforms and operational dashboards without manual reporting or data export.
Component 5

Business User Interface on Streamlit

A Streamlit-based interface lets business users generate, review, and approve DQ rules without writing SQL. Rule generation, curation, approval, and execution are managed in a single interface designed for data owners and stewards, not engineers.
Component 6

In-Flight and At-Rest Quality

The DQ Agent validates data quality in motion (in-flight pipeline validation) and at rest (offline dataset validation), covering both real-time and batch data quality scenarios within your Snowflake environment.
[Why Incept]
We Do Not Just Deploy Snowflake. We Govern What Lives in It.
Most Snowflake engagements stop at migration and performance. Incept adds the governance, AI-powered quality, and access lifecycle management that determines whether your Snowflake data is actually trusted.
METHODOLOGY
Governance-First Implementation
We configure Snowflake with governance in mind from the first architectural decision. Role hierarchies, data classification schemas, access controls, and metadata frameworks are part of the initial design, not a follow-on effort after data is already loaded.
DQ AGENT ACCELERATOR
AI-Powered Data Quality
Our AI-Powered DQ Agent, built natively on Snowflake Cortex, converts business requirements into executable DQ rules without SQL expertise. Data quality is enforced at the ingestion layer and scored automatically, keeping quality visible across the organization.
ACCESS LIFECYCLE
End-to-End Governed Access
We implement the full governed data delivery lifecycle: marketplace request, governance approval, ServiceNow workflow, governed Snowflake delivery, and automated revocation. No orphaned access. No manual cleanup. Full audit trail.
MIGRATION
Migration with Governance Built In
Most cloud migration projects defer governance to a later phase. We include governance configuration as part of every Snowflake migration engagement, so your new environment is governed from day one rather than inheriting the ungoverned patterns of the system it replaced.
INDEPENDENCE
Platform-Agnostic Advisory
We connect Snowflake to your existing data governance tools, source systems, and analytics platforms without prescribing a specific vendor stack. Our recommendations are driven by your architecture and objectives, not a platform preference.
