- Decoupling Storage & Compute:
    - Efficient data storage, Centralized and shared across all compute nodes, not tied to any specific node or virtual warehouse..
    - Independent data processing, different compute capacity for each node.
    - Components operate without interdependence.
- Benefits
    - Enhanced scalability.
    - Faster data processing and response.
    - Cost-effective operations.
- Storage Layer: 
    - Shared across all compute nodes
    - Columnar storage, 
    - Automatically optimized, organized, Compressed, Structured by default
- Compute Layer: 
    - Query execution happens, 
    - Virtual warehouses (temporary computing resources that handle different part of query and perform different operations like different experts working together to solve different problems), 
    - Scalability, Performance, Cost-effectiveness (Pay as you use)
- Cloud Services Layer (Acts as an Admin): 
    - Infrastructure management, 
    - Query Optimization, 
    - Authentication,
    - Access control,
    - Security
