🚀 Other Serverless Features

Snowflake offers several advanced compute-enhancing services (at additional cost), typically suited for complex workloads or specific use cases.

A few examples:

• Search Optimization Service (SOS) → Creates additional indexes to speed up queries with low-selectivity filters
• Query Acceleration Service (QAS) → Dynamically adds compute resources to accelerate complex queries
• Multi-cluster Warehouses → Automatically scales compute to meet high concurrency demands

⚠ These features can significantly improve performance, but they are optional and should be used only when you fully understand the workload and cost trade-offs. Start small, monitor the impact and scale up cautiously.
