Accelerating Retail Decisions through Snowflake Stream Processing

In the retail world, timing is everything. Globalmart, a leading multinational retailer, struggled with delayed data that slowed down crucial decisions. Imagine waiting a whole day to find out what sold — that’s the old way.

This project shows how Globalmart reinvented itself by unlocking the power of real-time data. With a bold move to live data streams and cloud technology, they transformed their stores into smart, responsive hubs.

Here’s what you’ll discover as you work through this project:

• How to build a seamless pipeline that captures and processes live sales, inventory, and customer data

• Techniques to reduce decision delays from hours to minutes, driving faster, smarter actions

• Ways to spot unusual sales trends instantly and act before problems grow

• Strategies for dynamic pricing and inventory adjustments based on what’s happening right now

By the end, you’ll understand how to turn scattered, delayed data into a competitive advantage — empowering stores to respond faster, optimize stock, and delight customers. Ready to see how real-time insights can reshape retail? This project will take you there.
