Deepak Fertilisers Embraces AI-Powered Evolution with Snowflake.
In a strategic dance between innovation and tradition, Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation Limited (DFPCL), a prominent player in India’s industrial chemicals and fertiliser landscape, has joined forces with cloud data platform Snowflake to breathe new life into its digital transformation journey.
Through the integration of Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud for Manufacturing, DFPCL is stepping confidently into a future shaped by real-time insights, smarter analytics, and seamless collaboration. The partnership aims to overhaul legacy data practices and bring forth a new era of data-driven agility across DFPCL’s value chain, especially in fertiliser production.
Scaling towards its vision of becoming a specialty solutions provider, DFPCL is transitioning away from its historical identity as a commodity-centric manufacturer. To support this strategic shift, it is adopting Snowflake’s modern cloud-native architecture — a toolset crafted to untangle complex data flows and minimize operational burdens. The flexible pay-as-you-go model empowers the company to manage storage and compute independently, ensuring cost-effectiveness while eliminating unnecessary overheads.
A unique aspect of this partnership is the enhanced access to open-source data through Snowflake Marketplace. With tools like weather insights and agri-data products at its fingertips, DFPCL strengthens its business intelligence capabilities, unlocking precision and foresight in decision-making.
The platform’s robust data governance capabilities — such as Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Time Travel — are key to ensuring strong data security and compliance. These features support enterprise-grade safeguards, enabling DFPCL to build a secure and intelligent data ecosystem.
Deepak Kamat, Vice President IT at DFPCL, remarked, “At Deepak Fertilizers, digital transformation is central to our business operations. We believe data is key to driving customer value, efficiency, innovation, and growth. Moving from traditional Data Warehouses to Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud for Manufacturing will enhance our decision-making and help us ensure business agility in today’s dynamic market. This collaboration marks a pivotal moment in our digital transformation journey.”
Echoing this sentiment, Vijayant Rai, Managing Director – India at Snowflake, said, “Snowflake’s AI Data Cloud for Manufacturing provides DFPCL, operating in a traditionally data-intensive sector, with a scalable, secure, and cost-efficient platform to unify its data and drive business value.” He added that real-time data access allows for rapid innovation and streamlined operations in sectors where every second and detail counts.
This landmark partnership is not just a technological upgrade — it’s a poetic stride towards a smarter, faster, and more adaptive industrial future.
