Demo path

From Snowflake exception table to reviewable operational workflow.

This evaluation demo starts with one exception queue, generates the workspace, lets an operator work a record, routes approval, preserves history, and shows how approved outcomes can be extracted through customer-controlled Snowflake workflows.

Seller setup

The workflow in one sentence.

EntryLayer helps a Snowflake customer replace an exported exception-review file with an app-like workflow that runs inside Snowflake and keeps review state queryable.

EntryLayer is not another export destination. It is a Snowflake Native App for the human workflow around Snowflake-backed records.

The fastest customer pilot is a narrow exception queue: records already in Snowflake that need correction, review, approval, and traceable history.

The workflow story is concrete: turn an exception table into a working product surface, then pull approved outcomes back into customer-controlled Snowflake workflows.

Security review starts from the same simple boundary: SPCS runtime, Hybrid Tables app state, caller-rights source reads where supported, optional Cortex through Snowflake, and anonymous Marketplace billing metadata.

First 10 minutes

A repeatable demo path for product evaluation.

Step 01

Start from a Snowflake exception table

A table or view already identifies records that need human review. EntryLayer starts from that Snowflake-backed source instead of exporting the queue.

Step 02

Generate the first form and review workspace

Builders use source metadata and optional Cortex assistance to create a project, review fields, and publish a usable starting point.

Step 03

Work the queue

Operators scan rows, open details, correct permitted fields, add context, and submit records into the review path.

Step 04

Review, approve, and keep the history

Reviewers approve or reject records with status, field history, access activity, and comments retained as app-managed Snowflake state.

Run of show

Ten-minute demo timing.

0:00-1:00

Open with the problem: exception work is happening in spreadsheets, tickets, or side apps.

1:00-2:30

Select the Snowflake source and explain source access at a high level.

2:30-4:00

Review the generated form and show builder refinement.

4:00-6:30

Open the work queue, inspect a row, and submit a correction.

6:30-8:30

Approve the record and point out history, comments, and read-only workflow state.

8:30-10:00

Close with extraction, security posture, pilot kit, and Marketplace next step.

Architecture close

End on the data boundary.

  • EntryLayer runs as a Snowflake Native App on Snowpark Container Services.
  • Application state and audit history are stored in Snowflake Hybrid Tables.
  • Customer source reads use Restricted Caller Rights where Snowflake supports them.
  • Cortex-assisted generation uses Snowflake Cortex, not a provider-owned external LLM endpoint.
  • Marketplace billing events carry anonymous seat-day and proration metadata only.

Pilot handoff

Turn the demo into a narrow customer pilot.

Start with one Snowflake-backed exception table or view, one builder, one reviewer, and a clear decision about what an approved record should mean downstream.
