Anavsan Product Team

Snowflake Cortex unlocks AI-native capabilities inside Snowflake—but without visibility into services usage, cost, and workload behavior, optimization remains incomplete. Anavsan now provides unified Cortex and Services visibility in a single dashboard, enabling real-time AI workload monitoring, cost transparency, and performance intelligence across your Snowflake environment.
The AI Layer Is Here. Visibility Must Catch Up.
Snowflake Cortex introduces powerful AI-native capabilities directly inside Snowflake—enabling LLM-powered queries, embeddings, semantic search, and intelligent data workflows.
But as AI workloads increase, so does complexity.
AI queries behave differently.
Service consumption patterns shift.
Credit usage becomes less predictable.
Traditional warehouse-level monitoring is no longer enough.
Enterprises adopting Cortex need one thing urgently:
Clear, centralized visibility.
That’s exactly what we’ve built on Anavsan.
Cortex Visibility on Anavsan
AI-powered workloads demand AI-powered monitoring.
With Cortex visibility on Anavsan, teams can:
Track Cortex-specific credit consumption
Monitor AI workload execution trends
Identify high-cost inference patterns
Analyze query behavior linked to AI functions
Detect workload spikes in near real-time
Instead of manually stitching together Snowflake views and logs, everything is surfaced in a single unified dashboard.


Why Cortex Visibility Matters
Cortex workloads introduce:
Higher compute variability
Non-linear credit usage patterns
Mixed traditional + AI query pipelines
Increased concurrency spikes
Without structured monitoring:
Costs can escalate unnoticed
AI workloads may impact core BI performance
FinOps teams lose forecasting accuracy
Anavsan bridges that gap with purpose-built Cortex visibility.
Snowflake Services Visibility — The Missing Layer
While Cortex brings AI capabilities, Snowflake Services power the underlying ecosystem:
Metadata services
Cloud services usage
Background operations
Query optimization services
Task execution
Internal system services
These often go under-monitored.
Yet they directly influence:
Credit consumption
Latency
Optimization efficiency
Overall cost profile
Anavsan now provides dedicated services-level visibility, allowing teams to understand what’s happening beyond warehouses.

Unified View: Cortex + Services Together
The real power lies in correlation.
With Anavsan, you can:
Compare Cortex consumption against overall services usage
Identify AI-driven cost spikes
Detect service-layer inefficiencies
Understand org-level trends across accounts
Monitor multi-account environments in one place
This enables:
✔ Smarter AI workload planning
✔ Accurate cost governance
✔ Performance stability
✔ Proactive anomaly detection
Designed for Modern Snowflake Teams
Anavsan’s Cortex and Services visibility is built for:
Data Engineering teams
Snowflake Architects
FinOps teams
Platform Engineering leaders
AI/ML engineering teams
Snowflake partners managing multiple customers
Whether you operate a single account or multi-org deployment, you get consolidated intelligence.

The Future of Snowflake Optimization
Cortex represents the AI future inside Snowflake.
But AI without visibility creates blind spots.
By combining:
AI workload monitoring
Services-level transparency
Cost intelligence
Real-time trend tracking
Anavsan ensures your AI adoption remains controlled, optimized, and predictable.
Snowflake is becoming AI-native.
Your visibility should be too.
FAQs
1. What is Snowflake Cortex visibility?
Snowflake Cortex visibility refers to monitoring AI-powered workloads, credit consumption, and query performance related to Cortex functions inside Snowflake.
2. Why is Cortex monitoring important?
AI workloads consume credits differently than traditional queries, making monitoring essential for cost control and performance stability.
3. What is Snowflake Services visibility?
Services visibility tracks background services, cloud services usage, metadata operations, and system-level compute consumption within Snowflake.
4. How is Services visibility different from warehouse monitoring?
Warehouse monitoring focuses on compute clusters, while Services visibility tracks non-warehouse credit consumption and system-level activities.
5. Does Anavsan support multi-account Snowflake organizations?
Yes. Anavsan provides org-level visibility across multiple Snowflake accounts in a unified dashboard.
6. Can Anavsan detect AI-driven cost spikes?
Yes. Cortex visibility enables identification of AI workload trends and unusual consumption spikes.
7. Is this real-time monitoring?
Anavsan provides near real-time trend tracking and continuous visibility dashboards.
8. Who should use Cortex and Services visibility?
Data engineers, Snowflake architects, FinOps teams, AI teams, and Snowflake partners.
9. Does this require changes to Snowflake configuration?
Minimal setup is required. Anavsan connects securely and surfaces monitoring dashboards.
10. How does this help with cost optimization?
By correlating AI workloads, services usage, and credit trends, teams can proactively optimize before costs escalate.
