Understanding Snowflake Pricing

Snowflake’s platform powers the Data Cloud by eliminating the complexity, cost, and constraints inherent with other approaches. Available as a service on leading cloud providers, Snowflake eliminates architectural complexity, so you can run many workloads with the elasticity, performance and scale required by the modern enterprise.

The Snowflake architecture separates data warehousing into three distinct layers: storage, virtual warehouses (compute), and cloud services. Snowflake pricing is based on the actual usage of these layers and of serverless features.

Storage

A monthly fee for data stored in Snowflake is calculated using the average amount of storage used per month, after compression, for data ingested into Snowflake. Depending on file types, compression can reduce the total storage needs substantially.

Virtual Warehouses (Compute)

A virtual warehouse is one or more compute clusters that enable customers to load data and perform queries. Customers pay for virtual warehouses using Snowflake credits.

Cloud Services

The cloud services layer provides all permanent state management and overall coordination of Snowflake. Customers pay for cloud services using Snowflake credits.

What is a Snowflake credit?

Snowflake credits are used to pay for the consumption of resources on Snowflake. A Snowflake credit is a unit of measure, and it is consumed only when a customer is using resources, such as when a virtual warehouse is running, the cloud services layer is performing work, or serverless features are used.

VIRTUAL WAREHOUSES (COMPUTE)

Snowflake supports a wide range of virtual warehouse sizes: X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, 2X-Large, 3X-Large, and 4X-Large. The size of the virtual warehouse determines how fast queries will run. When a virtual warehouse is not running (that is, when it is set to sleep mode), it does not consume any Snowflake credits. The different sizes of virtual warehouses consume Snowflake credits at the following rates, billed by the second with a one-minute minimum.

VIRTUAL WAREHOUSES CREDITS PER HOUR
XS S M L XL 2XL 3XL 4XL 5XL* 6XL*
Standard 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512
Snowpark-Optimized N/A N/A 6 12 24 48 96 192 384 786

CLOUD SERVICES

Cloud services resources are automatically assigned by Snowflake based on the requirements of the workload. Typical utilization of cloud services (up to 10% of daily compute credits) is included for free, which means most customers will not see incremental charges for cloud services usage.

Pricing Examples

The cost of the Snowflake service is determined by actual usage which varies based on the individual customer application. Most Snowflake customers gain experience using Snowflake On Demand. That allows the application workload to be developed and tested and provides real-world experience to estimate the monthly cost. When the application workload is understood, an appropriately sized Capacity purchase can be made. Here are two different examples of Snowflake Capacity pricing:

  • Pricing Example 1

    Customer has purchased the Snowflake Capacity Standard Service with Premier Support in the United States. They load data every night and have 8 users using the database during business hours. This customer:

    • Stores an average of 4 TB’s of compressed data (compare with 20 TB without compression).
    • Runs a batch loading task every night for 2.5 hours, using a Small Standard Virtual Warehouse.
    • Enables eight users to work 5 days a week from 8am until 6pm using a Medium Standard Virtual Warehouse.

    Data Loading Requirements

    Parameter Customer Requirements Proposed Setup
    Data Load Frequency Daily Small Standard Virtual Warehouse (2 Credits per hour)
    Loading Window 2.5 hours (2 Credits x 2.5 hours per day x 31 days per month)
    Credits Required per month 155

    User Requirements

    Credits Required per month 955 (800 Credits for Users + 155 for Data Loading)

    Storage Requirements

    Data Set size (per month) 4TB (After Compression)
    Data storage price (per year) $1,104 4TB x $23 (per TB per month, based on Storage table) x 12 months
    Virtual Warehouse (per year) $21,774 955 (Credits per month) x $2 (per credit) x 0.95 (5% sample discount) x 12 months
    Total Price (per year) $22,878 Data Set (per year) + Virtual Warehouse (per year)
  • Pricing Example 2

    Customer has purchased the Snowflake Capacity Standard Service with Premier Support in the United States.

    They load data constantly, 24×7. They have two different groups of users (Finance and Sales) using the database in overlapping, but different times of the day. They also run a weekly batch report. This customer:

    • Stores an average of 65 TB’s of compressed data (compare with 325 TB without compression).
    • Loads data 24×365. They use a Small Standard Virtual Warehouse to do this.
    • Enables seven finance users to work 5 days a week from 8am until 5pm using a Large Standard Virtual Warehouse.
    • Enables twelve sales users in different geographies to work a total of 16 hours a day (across Europe and the Americas), 5 days a week using a Medium Standard Virtual Warehouse.
    • Runs a complex weekly report every Friday. This report takes approximately 2 hours to run on a 2X-Large standard warehouse.
