Omnata vs. Snowflake Openflow

Omnata
vs.
Snowflake Openflow

Omnata is a Snowflake Native App built ground-up for plug & play bi-directional integration between Snowflake and SaaS and databases. It is designed for the modern ELT paradigm, it's fast and easy to use, and has no infrastructure outside of Snowflake.

Openflow (formerly Datavolo) was recently added to Snowflake’s ecosystem as an add-on primarily to enable unstructured data ingestion. Openflow is a hosted version of the almost 20-year old Apache NiFi framework originally designed for point-to-point ETL flows.
