Snowflake Setup
Drivetrain uses Snowflake's Direct Share approach to connect with customer accounts. Direct Shares only work when both accounts are on the same cloud provider and region. To support this, we maintain Snowflake accounts across multiple regions and cloud platforms (see list below).
If your account’s provider or region isn’t listed, please reach out—we’ll be happy to set it up for you.
