OCKAM LAUNCHES ZERO TRUST CONNECTORS ON SNOWFLAKE MARKETPLACE

Published

Snowflake customers can now connect every application, data source, and service in their enterprise to the AI Data Cloud with Ockam.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Ockam today announced the launch of eight new Connectors on Snowflake Marketplace. Ockam’s Snowflake Connectors will make it possible for joint customers to extend their AI Data Cloud to any federated application, data source and API across their enterprise.

Snowflake customers can now connect every data source in their enterprise to the AI Data Cloud with Ockam.

“The Snowflake Native App Framework and Snowflake Marketplace infrastructure is a game changer,”  said Matthew Gregory, Founder and CEO, Ockam. “I was part of the inception of the Heroku and Azure marketplaces and have experienced how open platforms build unifying ecosystems and strong communities. It’s been a long time coming, but now there’s an AI Data Cloud that’s committed to breaking silos to connect enterprise applications – everywhere.”

Ockam and Snowflake, the AI Data Cloud company, are working together to help joint customers inform business decisions and drive innovations by extending the power of the AI Data Cloud to every application, service, and data source, regardless of their cloud or on-prem footprint. Joint customers can now bring their data to other business critical applications without the risk of exposing data, or applications, to public facing internet gateways. Ockam Connectors create secure, mutually authenticated, point-to-point connections between Snowflake and every application in the enterprise. Previously, some business critical applications have been hard, if not impossible, to connect to Snowflake. Ockam makes it easy to access silos and to build a truly enterprise-wide Data Cloud.

“This collaboration with Ockam underscores our shared motivation to enable organizations to get the most out of their data and secure their environments,” said Tarik Dwiek, Head of Technology Alliances at Snowflake. “By bringing Ockam’s Connectors to the AI Data Cloud, we’re helping organizations to secure their applications, APIs, container services, or data stores across multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructures and accelerate their digital transformation journey.”

Ockam’s Snowflake Connectors add guarantees of data confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity, so you can enforce your enterprise data governance and privacy policies for connections to and from Snowflake. Every cloud app, API, container service, and data store across your multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructure will get its own unique cryptographically provable identity and encryption keys. They individually use their keys to mutually authenticate with their Snowflake AI Data Cloud and establish trusted secure channels across the data platform. All the data that moves through the AI Data Cloud is end-to-end encrypted while in motion. Keys, enrollments, and credentials are safely created, stored, rotated, and revoked automagically so there’s almost nothing to manage.

Snowflake Marketplace is powered by Snowflake’s ground-breaking cross-cloud technology, Snowgrid, allowing companies direct access to raw data products and the ability to leverage data, apps, and AI products quickly, securely, and cost-effectively. Snowflake Marketplace simplifies discovery, access, and the commercialization of data products, enabling companies to unlock entirely new revenue streams and extended insights across the AI Data Cloud.

BALI, Indonesia, Nov. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ADFIAP International CEO Forum XVII successfully concluded with over 150 esteemed participants shared common agreement regarding the crucial role of Development Finance Institutions (DFI). The event hosted by PT Sarana Multi Infrastruktur (Persero) (“PT SMI”), a state-owned enterprise under the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, held in Bali, Indonesia, on November 6-8 2024.

Under the forum theme, “Building a Sustainable Future: The Crucial Role of DFIs in a Low Carbon Development Agenda”, the conference brings together CEOs of development banks and ADFIAP member financial institutions to conduct meaningful dialogues, exchange ideas and collaborate on current issues related to sustainable development and climate change challenges as well as financing the development of projects related to climate change faced by many financial institutions. The forum served as a platform for high-level discussions, knowledge sharing and collaboration among key industry stakeholders, which will support the common goals.

As the forum concluded, there are several key takeaways emerge: a. The urgency of climate action is undeniable. DFIs must accelerate the energy transition and adopt sustainable practices across all sectors; b. Collaboration is the key to unlocking the full potential of sustainable development. By working together, DFIs can overcome challenges, share knowledge, and amplify their impact; c. Innovation is the engine of progress. DFIs must embrace new ideas, technologies, and business models to address the complexities of the 21st century; d. The human dimension must be at the heart of DFI’s work. DFI must prioritize social equity, environmental sustainability, and human well-being.

PT SMI was appointed as the host of CEO Forum for the first time, since joining ADFIAP back in 2016. Through its membership in ADFIAP, PT SMI expands networks and builds relationships with financial institutions to collaborate and contribute to sustainable development.

“We are truly privileged to host this important event and appreciate the trust and confidence placed in us by ADFIAP. The theme of this year’s forum, “Building a Sustainable Future: The Crucial Role of Development Finance Institutions in a Low Carbon Development Agenda” couldn’t be more timely. PT SMI is committed to transforming itself into a full-fledged DFI. By focusing on research-based concessional loans and aligning our activities with the principles of People, Planet, Profit, and Prosperity, we aim to maximize our impact on sustainable development”, says Reynaldi Hermansjah, President Director of PT SMI.

Notable speakers from renowned DFIs, government institutions, and international organizations enlightened participants with their expertise and insights. Key topics covered included equitable energy transition, leveraging digital transformation strategies, the role of impact investment in building resilient infrastructure, and ensuring universal water access and sanitation. The delegates were also treated to experience the richness of Balinese culture through a series of tour agendas, enjoying traditional culinary and local arts.

“This year’s CEO Forum proved successful in uniting visions through a number of fruitful discussions. We are aware that the effort for driving sustainable development and combating climate change is still a work in progress. But what we achieved here in Bali in the past few days is definitely essential for us to move forward with our collective agenda of fostering sustainable growth and development in our region and beyond”, says H.E. Dr. Kao Thach, ADFIAP Chairman.
