Version 4 of the Qlik Snowflake Usage Dashboard is designed with the big implementations in mind. Incremental loads are used for the tables so that you can keep accumulating massive history without the cost/time of having to read it all live. All of the query history is retained and saved to QVD for use in a specific Query Analysis application, but only the aggregates are retained in the main application. Thus, allowing very nimble responses and yet providing an easy to link to the details when anyone wants to analyze them.
What’s new in Snowflake Dashboard (V3.2):
This version is trimmed down on Query Text (left 100) to limit data, and removes around 40 unused columns. The 3.2 version is 50% smaller than the 3.1 version of the Usage Dashboard
What’s new in Snowflake Dashboard (V3):
This Qlik Sense app combines data from multiple Snowflake tables to create an understanding of four key areas.
- Cost / Usage Analysis: What is the cost of your usage?
-Auditing/ Security: Who is driving usage?
- Performance & Optimization: Which queries are driving usage?
- Connection Details: Which Qlik products are driving your usage?
Also, we have created a TOC and Configuration page to set variables specific to your Snowflake configuration.
Sections of the Qlik Application:
Usage Cost Analysis: Analysis by various factors how Snowflake credits/spend are being consumed
Enterprise Credit Usage Analysis: Allows investigation of credit/usage spend against a pre-bought credit pack from Snowflake (Enterprise Customers)
