Case Study: 8fit achieves faster time-to-insight and on-demand BI reporting with Snowflake

Enabling Data-Driven Mobile App Development with Snowflake

8fit, a Berlin-based mobile app used by over 25 million people for personalized workouts and meal plans, faced growing delays in Looker reporting as its legacy warehouse required constant tuning and couldn’t handle semi-structured data or rising query loads. The data team needed to accelerate time-to-insight for marketing, product, engineering, and finance without adding operational overhead.

8fit moved to Snowflake’s cloud data warehouse, leveraging separate storage and compute, instant scaling, native semi-structured support, and Amazon S3 integration to centralize data and remove cluster management. The migration powered faster, on-demand Looker reports at lower cost, enabling rapid analysis of user behavior, quicker feature and campaign decisions, and plans to further streamline pipelines with Snowflake Secure Data Sharing.
