Snowflake Cortex AI is changing how organizations build intelligent applications with a fully managed AI engine directly inside the Data Cloud, with no infrastructure to stand up and no data to move. In this webinar, data engineering and architecture consultants from Datalere – Michael Spiessbach, Michelle Gaedke, Rob Browning, and Wesley Toy – will break down the Cortex platform and show you what it looks like in practice.

They'll walk through Cortex Agents, the agentic AI framework that autonomously plans, selects tools, and reasons across structured and unstructured data in a single conversation. They'll go deep on Cortex Search, the hybrid semantic and keyword search engine powering RAG and enterprise search applications. 

And they'll unpack Cortex Semantic Views, the business-friendly layer that maps cryptic database schemas to real metrics and dimensions so Cortex Analyst can generate precise SQL from plain English. The session wraps with a live demo: a sales analytics app driven by a semantic view, answering natural language questions on the fly.
