Modernizing Jupyter workflows with Hex + Snowflake
Feb 15, 2024

Summary
This post details how Hex modernizes Jupyter workflows by offering a cloud-native, collaborative, and scalable alternative. It highlights Hex's advantages over traditional Jupyter Notebooks in ease of installation (cloud-hosted, no local setup), data access (first-class SQL support, direct Snowflake integration, Snowpark connectivity), data scale (cloud-based memory/processing, Query Mode for large datasets), version control (built-in autosaving, visual diff explorer, GitHub/GitLab integration for PR workflows), and collaboration (shared notebooks, live edits, presence indicators, conflict resolution, code reviews).
