Users of Snowflake’s Cortex AI platform now have access to OpenAI’s models through an expanded partnership with Microsoft, enabling them to create artificial intelligence data agents to streamline workflows.

Described by Snowflake as a “watershed moment”, the new capabilities will be available by the integration of Snowflake Cortex AI with Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service in Azure AI Foundry. Snowflake said the new offering will save businesses time and money.

“There’s enormous power in our customers being able to use OpenAI models directly in Snowflake’s secure platform, unlocking multimodal, agentic, and conversational AI use cases that drive high impact,” said Christian Kleinerman, executive vice president of product at Snowflake.
