Best practices

  • For best possible results, consider running SnowKill every minute.

  • For ease of maintenance, you may run SnowKill as basic serverless application (AWS Lambda, Fargate, etc.). One CPU core and a few hundred Mb of RAM should be sufficient.

  • For better security, consider using private key authentication method for SnowKill administration user. Try to avoid using password for users with programmatic access.

  • Consider using an additional queue (SNS, SQS, Pub/Sub, etc.) for notifications to avoid losing messaged if your notification channel is temporary not available.

  • Consider using OLTP database for log storage (e.g. Postgres table) instead of Snowflake table. Snowflake table helps to get you started, but it is not the most efficient setup for production.
