Snowflake, Last Updated: February 24, 2026. Read the SLA

Credits are not a % of the bill: they are multiples of 'Average Daily Snowflake Credits' (1x, 3x, 7x), so the schema's numeric credit field is null. Schedule: <99.99%/10% threshold down to 99.0% = 1x; <99.9%/1% threshold down to 99.0% = 1x; <99.0% to 95.0% = 3x; <95.0% = 7x. Credits cannot be converted to money. The page makes no distinction by edition (Standard/Enterprise/Business Critical); no edition-specific SLA was found. Uptime counts both Unavailable Minutes (error-rate based) and Downtime (UI inaccessible due to server-side errors).
