Case Study: Runkeeper achieves 135x faster data-driven insights with Snowflake

Runkeeper Delivers Data-driven Insights 135 Times Faster with Snowflake

Runkeeper, a leading mobile fitness app with over 50 million users and more than one billion events generated monthly, needed faster, more concurrent access to its event data to improve the user experience. Its previous data warehouse struggled with concurrency and slow processing and ingestion, making it difficult for analysts and engineers to quickly get actionable insights.

By moving to Snowflake’s cloud data warehouse and using Snowflake Data Sharing, Runkeeper cut analytics processing time by 135x (two years of data now processed far faster), eliminated lengthy catch-up windows, and gained instant, secure access to third‑party marketing data. The result: product, marketing, engineering, and platforms teams can react to customer needs much faster and deliver more engaging features.
