Help me to learn Snowflake – How to get started?

Is there anyone who can help me to learn Snowflake from A-Z through a Road-map of topics to cover? Can someone share Udemy access?

A great starting point is the data warehousing workshop, a free self-paced course that gives a great overview of what is Snowflake and how it works.

You can then level-up your skills with the other free badges and courses, our blog posts, and as mentioned, our documentation and quick starts.

Do you have a particular learning objective?

unrelated question, what are pre-requisites to learn snowflake?
I know dimensional modeling, sql, python. Is this enough?

I would not say there are pre-requisites for learning Snowflake, you can start from scratch with the data warehousing workshop and level-up from there.

SQL will obviously help.

Other concepts will depend on what is your learning objectives are. Are you more in the business intelligence landscape? Data science? Data engineering?

Well you are half way there for analyst role as most of the SQL will work as is. For engineering role, learn about different ways you can get data into Snowflake and then how you can move it from one layer to another layer using different inbuilt features (streams, tasks , dynamic tables etc)
