What should I do if Snowflake is down for me?

Check your connection limit and pool settings first, since exhausting connections looks exactly like the database being down. Retry with a longer timeout, because a serverless or scale-to-zero instance may simply be waking up. Confirm your credentials and IP allowlist have not changed, as an auth or firewall denial reads as a failed query. Query from another network or client to establish whether the cluster or your route to it is the problem.

HTTP 200

Over the last 7 days, Snowflake has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~153 ms. The most recent outage began 2026-10-06 08:01 UTC and lasted 15m (severity: degraded).

Snowflake is a cloud data warehouse separating storage from elastic compute, central to many companies' analytics and reporting. Incidents are usually scoped to one cloud region or to a specific capability, so warehouses may fail to resume or queries queue while the web interface remains fully responsive.

Is Snowflake down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching Snowflake normally right now, and it answered our last one in 140ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.
