No. Snowflake runs exclusively in the cloud. In principle, Snowflake has understood how to make the best use of the various cloud services (Amazon, Google, Azure). Take AWS (Amazon Web Services) as an example: Data Storage uses Amazon S3. Computing power in the form of a virtual warehouse is provided via clusters of EC2 instances. Disk cache is provided by SSD/Main Memory of the EC2 instances. Meanwhile, there is also Teradata in the cloud. However, it should be remembered that the disadvantages of Shared Nothing Architecture exist here.
