Understanding overall cost
Because Snowflake utilizes per - second billing (with a 60 - second minimum each time the warehouse starts), warehouses are billed only for the credits they actually consume when they are actively working.
Overview of warehouses
Default size for warehouses created in Snowsight and using CREATE WAREHOUSE. Small 2 0.0006 Medium 4 0.0011 Large 8 0.0022 X - Large 16 0.0044 Default size for warehouses created using the Classic Console.
Warehouse considerations
X - Small: Bills 1 credit per full, continuous hour that each cluster runs; each successive size generally doubles the number of compute resources per warehouse. 4X - Large: Bills 128 credits per full, continuous hour that each cluster runs.

Understanding compute cost
Snowflake credits are charged based on the number of virtual warehouses you use, how long they run, and their size. Warehouses come in many sizes. In this table, the size specifies the compute resources per cluster available to the…

Snowpipe costs
Previously, Snowpipe costs had two components: the actual compute resources used to load your data — that were measured per - second/per - core — and a per - 1,000 - files charge. Moving forward, Snowpipe ingestion will be billed under a new,…
Cost controls for warehouses
Cost controls for warehouses This topic discusses controls that you can use to limit how much is spent on virtual warehouse usage. These controls help ensure that the actual cost of using virtual warehouses does not exceed expected cost.
