Snowflake is powerful and scalable—but costs can spiral if it’s not configured and used wisely. At Essid Solutions, we help teams cut their Snowflake costs while boosting performance through smart optimization techniques.

💸 Why Snowflake Costs Add Up

Common issues that drive up Snowflake bills:

• Oversized or always-on virtual warehouses
• Repeated or inefficient queries
• Lack of data lifecycle policies
• Poorly managed user roles and permissions

We help you optimize compute, storage, and user behavior to save money.

⚖️ Our Snowflake Optimization Services

1. Usage Audit – Analyze your current Snowflake spend, usage patterns, and warehouse configuration
2. Query Optimization – Tune high-cost queries, avoid scans, improve joins
3. Warehouse Rightsizing – Autoscaling, suspension policies, pooling setup
4. Storage Cleanup – Unused tables, fail-safe/retention policies, temp data
5. Role & Access Management – Improve security and reduce accidental misuse
6. Cost Monitoring Dashboards – Alerts and reporting to prevent overruns

🌌 Tools We Use

• Snowflake native tools (Query Profile, Resource Monitors, Information Schema)
• Custom dashboards via dbt, Power BI, or Metabase
• Query linting and analysis tools (SQLFluff, Snowflake’s Query History)

💼 Use Case: E-Commerce Analytics Team

A retail company using Snowflake for analytics had growing storage and compute costs. We:

• Audited warehouse usage and implemented autosuspend
• Rewrote expensive queries using CTEs and clustering
• Archived cold data using lifecycle policies
• Set up a monthly cost dashboard for stakeholders

Result: 33% monthly cost reduction and faster dashboards.
