Story
Inside Occidental Petroleum, partner data exchange used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in energy groups working out of the United States. Data platform and lines of business needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Occidental Petroleum uses Cortex AI from Snowflake as the working layer for secure data sharing. Snowflake is a cloud data platform that separates storage and compute so organizations can share, analyze, and govern data across clouds. The practical change is simple: partner data exchange has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Occidental Petroleum gets from Snowflake is a durable place to run partner data exchange and a way for data platform and lines of business to see the same secure data sharing at the same time.
