+# Snowflake
+
+## Description
+
+The [Snowflake](https://trial.snowflake.com) batch materialization engine provides a highly scalable and parallel execution engine using a Snowflake Warehouse for batch materializations operations (`materialize` and `materialize-incremental`) when using a `SnowflakeSource`.
+
+The engine requires no additional configuration other than for you to supply Snowflake's standard login and context details. The engine leverages custom (automatically deployed for you) Python UDFs to do the proper serialization of your offline store data to your online serving tables.
+
+When using all three options together, `snowflake.offline`, `snowflake.engine`, and `snowflake.online`, you get the most unique experience of unlimited scale and performance + governance and data security.
+
+## Example

+```yaml

 Starting with data in a Snowflake table, we will register that table to the feature store and define features associated with the columns in that table. From there, we will generate historical training data based on those feature definitions and then materialize the latest feature values into the online store. Lastly, we will retrieve the materialized feature values.
