Anomaly monitors for cost anomalies (Preview)¶

With this release, Snowflake is pleased to announce the public preview of anomaly monitors. Until now, Snowflake detected cost anomalies for a whole account or a whole organization, which could be too coarse to catch a spike inside a single team or project. An anomaly monitor lets you define your own scope using object tags and service types, so you can monitor a business unit, cost center, or project on its own.

Snowflake attributes consumption to each monitor daily, runs the same detection algorithm against it, and can email a notification list that is specific to that monitor. Each account can have up to 20 monitors, and each monitor tracks either credits or AI credits.

You can work with anomaly monitors using Snowsight or SQL.

• Snowsight: The Anomalies tab in Cost management now includes filters for selecting a monitor, choosing a credit family, and building a scope from tags and service types. You can review the anomalies a scope produces before you save it, and recalculate a monitor after you retag resources.

• ANOMALY_INSIGHTS class: New methods create, update, read, and delete monitors, manage each monitor’s notification list, and test a configuration without saving it.
