Monitor Snowflake health, queries, and credit costs — directly inside Dynatrace.

  • Product information

Overview

The Data Observability application connects your Snowflake account to Dynatrace through a guided setup wizard — giving you warehouse health, query performance, credit consumption, and Davis AI anomaly detection in one place, without deploying external agents or writing code.

This is intended for users who:

  • Monitor Snowflake warehouse health alongside application observability in Dynatrace
  • Need credit consumption and cost attribution by warehouse or team
  • Want proactive alerting on credit burn, saturation, or query failures before users are affected

Use cases

  • Incident triage for Data Engineers: When a Dynatrace Problem fires, you navigate directly to the affected Snowflake warehouse and the specific query responsible — without switching to the Snowflake Query History UI.
  • Cost attribution for Data Platform Lead: You get warehouse-level credit consumption and cost trend dashboards out of the box. Attribute Snowflake spend by warehouse and team without manually exporting data from Snowflake.
  • Unified observability for Platform SREs: Snowflake warehouse incidents surface alongside application and infrastructure Problems in the same Dynatrace timeline. Assess the blast radius of a warehouse anomaly without context-switching between tools.

Get started

Open the Data Observability App, navigate to Connections, and click + Connection to launch the setup wizard. The wizard guides you through:

  1. Snowflake account connection and service account setup (one-time; elevated access required only here)
  2. Warehouse and database scope selection
  3. Telemetry module selection
  4. Connectivity validation and first telemetry confirmation

Setup completes in under 30 minutes. Your Snowflake credentials are never held by Dynatrace after initial setup.

Core modules are pre-selected by default: warehouse health, query performance, and credit consumption.

Advanced modules — task graphs, dynamic table refresh, schema changes, cost budgets, Snowpipe ingestion, Trust Center security findings, and user governance — can be enabled or disabled at any time without re-running the wizard.

Details

Anomaly detection

Three ready-made alert policies activate automatically, creating alerts when the following conditions are met:

  • Credit burn spike — auto-baselining on warehouse credit consumption; active after a 7-day learning period
  • Warehouse saturation — sustained high concurrency load
  • Query failure rate — threshold-based, over a 1-hour window

Each of these alerts deep links to a runbook.

Auto-provisioned dashboards

Data Observability ships with several ready-made dashboards:

  • Query Performance
  • Costs Monitoring
  • Self-Monitoring

Additional dashboards will be available, once their corresponding modules are enabled:

  • Budgets & FinOps
  • Tasks & Pipelines
  • Snowpipe
  • Data Volume & Storage
  • Snowflake Security
