Maturing The Snowflake Data Cloud At London Stock Exchange
summary
London Stock Exchange Group consolidates two Snowflake accounts (one built, one acquired) into a repeatable Snowflake Landing Zone that standardizes PrivateLink, network policies, role-based access, credit attribution for FinOps and account-level replication for DR. A seven-week proof of concept becomes production over nearly three years; Professional Services and a core enablement team seed docs, training and governance tied to the EDM Council CDMC (160 pages, ~50 controls). They implement object tagging and content scraping tool pipelines for PDFs/Excel to expose unstructured content, and report the platform works in production.
