Snowflake FAQ

Should I load information directly to Snowflake from AWS Pricing or load via remote storage?

For testing purposes, loading directly into Snowflake is the fastest way to get started and check you are achieving the desired results. However, we don’t recommend choosing this approach for a particularly large dataset or once you move to a production environment. At this stage, it is recommended to sync the data from your source to a CSV or JSON file in a remote storage environment such as S3 or Google Cloud Storage and then running a Snowflake cron job or using SnowPipe to load that information into a Snowflake stage.

You can choose between basic authentication using a username and password or use a private and public key pair to authenticate with Snowflake. If you choose to use a private key, you can either place this inline in the specification or reference a separate file where the private key is stored.

AWS Pricing FAQ

Do I need AWS credentials in order to sync from AWS pricing to Snowflake?

No, you don't need to provide access credentials to use CloudQuery to syncing data from AWS Pricing to Snowflake. This is because all information in the AWS Pricing API is publicly available and unrelated to your account or current billing setup.

Yes. If you have an offer code, then you can add this to the ‘offer_codes’ spec when you set up the sync. This code will then be applied to all pricing information that is returned during the sync.

Yes. This is done in the region_codes spec when you set up your sync. Keep in mind that regular expressions are not supported, so you will need to exactly specify which regions you want to receive pricing information for when you set up your AWS Pricing to Snowflake sync.
