November 20, 2024 — Snowsight rate limits — General Availability¶

With this release, we are pleased to announce the general availability of rate limiting features in Snowsight. This functionality enhances platform security and performance under high traffic conditions, such as DDoS attacks or unexpected surges in request volume. Controlled limits are posed on the number of requests that can be made to Snowsight within specified time frames, ensuring consistent availability and stability across all user sessions. This new capability aligns with Snowflake’s commitment to providing a secure, resilient environment for data operations.
