Snowflake has way more revenue, is worth 3 times more than Databricks and is growing faster. I'd say Snowflake is still in the lead. Plus, just look at Snowflake's customer list. It's a "who's who", Databricks is a "Who's that?".

I took a look at Databricks public customer case studies[1] and haven't a clue who any of these companies are:

Atlassian? Adobe? ExxonMobil? PagerDuty? McAfee? HSBC? Starbucks? AstraZeneca? GlaxoSmithKline? Comcast? FINRA? Regeneron? Riot Games? Nielsen? HP? Conde Nast? Viacom? McGraw-Hill? Cisco? NBCUniversal?

Hopefully they can scale to the enterprise soon.

Lists of "references" like these are worthless. Because larger companies tend to be fragmented, especially companies that have more complicated business lines and are used to departments and divisions acting independently.

You know what, our company uses both Snowflake and Databricks.

For Databricks, there's one or two projects that someone built on it running in production. For Snowflake, there's a sizeable use because we bought a smaller company that used it for reporting and warehousing. Neither of them are "the chosen tool" and will see any growth unless wind changes. But we could be (F50 company) counted as reference by both I guess.
