It’s an exciting time here at Snowplow. We are actively selling in 14 countries with hundreds of customers and thousands of open-source users;Snowplow is well placed to weather the ongoing economic storm, having recently closed its Series A2 fundraising with Atlantic Bridge and MMC Ventures. The Opportunity Our Private SaaS offering has grown significantly over the past year and we now orchestrate and monitor Snowplow event pipelines across more than 150 customer-owned AWS &GCP sub-accounts. Each account has its own individualised and optimised stack and all are capable of processing many billions of events per month. We have a new trial experience that helps prospects self-serve a cut down experience of Snowplow, also in their own cloud.
