Advantages of Virtual Warehouse
• Virtual Warehouses can be started or stopped at any time and also can be scaled
at any time without impacting queries that are running.
• They also can be set to auto-suspend or auto-resume so that warehouses are
suspended after a specific period of inactive time and then when a query is
submitted are resumed.
• They can also be set to auto-scale with minimum and maximum cluster size, so
for e.g. we can set minimum 1 and maximum 3 so that depending on the load
Snowflake can provision between 1 to 3 multi-cluster warehouses.
