At the risk of posting two navel-gazing posts too close together, this month represents my three-year anniversary of working at Snowflake. I joined three years ago on a referral from a friend after getting laid of…
When Faster Is Cheaper: A Snowflake Spilling Story
One of the ways we can see that a query might be handling too much data for a particular warehouse is by looking at spilling. This article doesn't apply to adaptive warehouses as I haven't…

There are some really cool details about Snowflake's clustering. Working with these details can help reduce the cost of clustering. In the last article, I dug into how aligning a clusterin…
Geo-Partitioning My Life
After almost three years at Snowflake, I’m making a move - literally. I’ve signed a contract with Snowflake Germany and will be relocating to Berlin, where I’ll keep doing essentially the same job, just from a diff…

Snowflake Generation 2 Warehouses
When using Snowflake, compute and storage are fully separated. This means choosing different sizes (and types) of compute to use against the same data for different purposes. Even at the same time. It used…
Thoughts on Benchmarking
Benchmarking is a topic I've seen discussed for my entire career working with databases. We used to watch the TPC-C results published, when I was working with primarily OLTP systems, and was amazed to see software …
Exploring Join Explosion: Disjunct Join Predicates
Join explosions in Snowflake can cause significant performance problems. I thought I'd spend some time digging into specific examples of cases where join explosions happen and how to work …
