Snowflake

Connect Snowflake to track warehouse compute costs, query spend, and optimization opportunities in CloudVerse AI.

What you get

• Warehouse and cluster cost and utilization
• Query-level cost analysis (expensive, frequent, inefficient queries)
• Pipeline and job cost tracking
• Storage and dataset cost monitoring
• Optimization recommendations for idle warehouses and inefficient queries

Prerequisites

• Snowflake account with ACCOUNTADMIN or billing read access
• A dedicated service user with SNOWFLAKE database read permissions

Connect Snowflake

1. Go to Settings > Integrations.
2. Select Snowflake.
3. Enter a connection name — for example, snowflake-production.
4. Enter your Snowflake Account Identifier, Username, and Password (or key-pair credentials).
5. Finish the flow and wait for initial data ingestion.

Verify the connection

1. Open the Snowflake connection detail page in Settings > Integrations.
2. Confirm the status indicators are green.
3. Open Data & AI Platform > Data Platform and select Snowflake to verify warehouse and query data.

Data expected

Data	Used for
Warehouse compute usage	Warehouse spend, idle analysis, and optimization.
Query history	Expensive, frequent, inefficient, and high-scan query review.
Table and storage facts	Dataset growth, storage cost, and table-level cost drivers.
Account usage metadata	Ownership, filtering, and allocation context.

Best practices

• Create a dedicated read-only service user for CloudVerse rather than using an admin account.
• Grant access to SNOWFLAKE.ACCOUNT_USAGE views for full cost and usage visibility.
• Rotate credentials on schedule and revalidate Data Platform coverage after rotation.

Troubleshooting

See Integration setup issues if data does not appear after setup.
