# Zero-Copy Data Architecture: Snowflake Summit 2026

**[Snowflake](https://daily.dev/sources/snowflake)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A promotional recap of Snowflake Summit 2026 case studies from Panasonic Connect, Siemens Energy, and Daimler Truck North America, highlighting how zero-copy data architecture (built on open table formats like Apache Iceberg) and embedded enterprise AI cut costs, speed up decision-making, and enable conversational access to unstructured data. Siemens reported multimillion-euro savings, DTNA cut report times from hours to under five minutes processing 130 million daily updates, and Panasonic reduced survey analysis time by 90% and engineering document checks by 97%. The piece closes with cultural advice on driving adoption: treating IT as a partner, starting with small pilot projects, and prioritizing decision quality over raw speed.
