Story
Inside Viking Cruises, enterprise reporting used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. Analysts and finance partners needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Viking Cruises uses Cortex AI from Snowflake as the working layer for governed analytics. 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: enterprise reporting has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Viking Cruises gets from Snowflake is a durable place to run enterprise reporting and a way for analysts and finance partners to see the same governed analytics at the same time.
