Replicate ServiceNow data in Snowflake
in 3 simple steps
Perspectium provides an integration-as-a-service solution for replicating ServiceNow data to Snowflake and other targets.
Handling both the initial setup and ongoing maintenance, we empower organizations to use their internal resources more productively.
Our expertise with the ServiceNow platform ensures a fast implementation, allowing for quick deployment and immediate value for your organization.
After installation, users can choose which ServiceNow data to replicate by creating rules that automatically replicate data to Snowflake in real-time, based on user-defined conditions.
Additionally, users can configure bulk data transfers, applying filters or manually selecting specific data sets for replication.
Once configured, Perspectium DataSync replicates ServiceNow data to Snowflake dynamically, or in ad-hoc and scheduled bulk transfers.
Users can monitor the status of data transfers via receipts, and any failed transfers can be easily re-synced. A comprehensive activity log is available directly within ServiceNow, providing full visibility into the replication process.
How DataSync Connects ServiceNow to Snowflake
Our advanced data replication solution delivers outstanding throughput.
DataSync replicates over 20 million ServiceNow records into Snowflake daily, without impacting ServiceNow’s performance.
DataSync is an efficient tool that enables seamless integration between ServiceNow and Snowflake. Developed by ServiceNow partner Perspectium, this solution facilitates bulk or real-time replication of ServiceNow data into Snowflake databases.
Unlike many other data replication tools for ServiceNow, DataSync is designed to handle exceptionally large data volumes without causing any performance degradation to the ServiceNow platform.
It leverages a push mechanism to transfer data to a message broker system (MBS), from which the target systems can then pull the data.
This approach bypasses the traditional ETL/ELT processes and the ServiceNow REST API, both of which can struggle with large datasets and repeated queries. As a result, DataSync is capable of replicating over 20 million records per day with high efficiency.
Why Connect ServiceNow and Snowflake?
The Challenge
ServiceNow offers a wide range of features, including reporting, analytics, and even AI/ML capabilities. However, these features often fall short when compared to specialized tools, and extracting data from ServiceNow can be a complex process.
The Solution
DataSync provides a seamless way to connect ServiceNow to Snowflake, enabling users to easily replicate data such as records, comments, and attachments out of the platform.
With support for both bulk and dynamic data replication, DataSync allows users to transfer large datasets in batches or configure automated transfers based on user-defined criteria.
By replicating ServiceNow data into Snowflake, organizations gain enhanced control and accessibility to their data. Snowflake can then feed a wide variety of third-party applications, enabling powerful use cases in analytics, business intelligence, reporting, AI, machine learning, and more.
Integrating ServiceNow with Snowflake gives organizations enhanced control over and easier access to their ServiceNow data.
