February 28, 2025 — Increased max_cluster_count limits for multi-cluster warehouses

You now have more flexibility when specifying upper limits for the MAX_CLUSTER_COUNT property in Multi-cluster warehouses.

The upper limit for MAX_CLUSTER_COUNT is no longer restricted to 10. Instead, the upper limit varies depending on the warehouse size. Currently, you must use a SQL command, not Snowsight, to specify an upper limit higher than 10.

The scaling policies for multi-cluster warehouses now can increase or decrease the capacity of a warehouse by more than one cluster at a time.
