Stop Managing Snowflake, Start Mastering It: The Latest Keebo Updates

Blog graphic: Product Updates categorized blogs

As your Snowflake usage scales, so does the complexity of managing your Snowflake environment. Costs creep, performance tuning drains engineering time, and Snowflake spend feels like a guessing game. Too often, teams find themselves just managing the platform instead of mastering it to drive real value.

At Keebo, our mission is not to add random features. It is to reduce extra work and give you full control of your data platform.
Recent updates make optimization, control, and visibility easier than ever.

Our latest updates help you spend less time managing and more time driving results, with faster time to value.

AI-Powered Snowflake Optimization: Smarter, More Resilient Savings

We’ve made major leaps toward truly hands-off, intelligent optimization you can trust completely.

Deeper Savings with Advanced AI
We’ve improved our AI agent with reinforcement learning, so it learns from your workload and adapts in real time. It tracks changes in your data platform and uses them to make smarter decisions. The result is more savings without hurting performance or user experience.

Working Together: The Human-AI Partnership
Our AI agent works smoothly with your team’s manual and automated actions. Make a change yourself or through a pipeline, Keebo learns from it. It treats each change as a new baseline and improves from there. This creates a true partnership and keeps your workflows running smoothly.

Seamless Ecosystem Integration
Our public API connects Keebo to CI/CD, pipelines, and apps. You can run optimization directly from the tools you already use.

Intelligent Routing: Unlocking Enterprise Agility

Our latest updates bring breakthroughs in flexibility and control, delivering enterprise-grade capabilities to every Snowflake account.

Enterprise-Tier Scaling on Standard Licenses
Set routing rules to mimic multi-cluster scaling on Standard, without upgrading your Snowflake license. This improves speed and performance without added cost.
Customers already use this to significantly lower Snowflake spend for specific workloads.

Improved Routing Flexibility and Precision
We’ve added support for complex queries and new real-time warehouse signals.
You can now create more advanced rules using up-to-date information from your Snowflake environment. This leads to smarter query placement based on performance and cost.
You have more control over how queries run.

Programmatic Routing Control
Our new routing API lets you manage policies through code alongside the UI. Embed routing into your workflows for centralized, detailed control.

Deep Insights: From Cost Tracking to Business Accountability

We’ve evolved Keebo Workload Intelligence from simple monitoring to true financial governance and business intelligence.

Precise Cost Attribution & Performance Analytics
We’ve introduced powerful new capabilities for precise workload analytics and cost attribution. You can now define custom workloads based on users, teams, query tags, warehouses, and roles. The system then produces a comprehensive set of insights for each workload – covering everything from performance and usage to costs. This new level of visibility provides the clear, auditable data you need to implement internal cross-charging and foster company-wide accountability for your cloud data platform.

Complete Cost Control & Predictability
Our new Snowflake resource monitor for Workload Intelligence gives you a hard ceiling on credit usage. This ensures you get the deep insights you need with absolute predictability and control over your investment in Keebo, eliminating any worry about unexpected spend.

Master Your Data Platform with Confidence

These latest updates across the entire Keebo platform – Keebo Warehouse Optimization (KWO), Keebo Query Routing (KQR), and Keebo Workload Intelligence (KWI)—are designed for one purpose: to transform how you interact with Snowflake from manual management to strategic mastery. These enhancements deliver smarter automation, finer control, and clearer visibility.

This isn’t just about cost savings, it’s about achieving ultimate productivity, unwavering control, and seamless governance. It’s about having the confidence to let your data ecosystem grow without anxiety.

Case Study: How a Global Retail Brand Reduced Snowflake Costs by 42% Using Keebo

The Challenge

A leading global retail enterprise was struggling with rapidly escalating Snowflake costs as their analytics workloads scaled across multiple teams and geographies. Manual performance tuning consumed engineering hours, and visibility into workload-level spend was fragmented. They needed a solution that could automate optimization while maintaining strict performance SLAs.

The Keebo Solution

By deploying Keebo Warehouse Optimization (KWO) and Keebo Smart Query Routing (KQR), the company enabled autonomous AI-driven performance tuning across all production workloads. Keebo’s Workload Intelligence (KWI) provided granular cost attribution by department and project, helping teams identify inefficient query patterns and set budget accountability.

The Results

  • 42% reduction in overall Snowflake spend within the first 60 days
  • 35% improvement in query performance, with zero SLA breaches
  • Full visibility into workload-level usage and costs across 12 departments
  • Seamless integration with existing CI/CD workflows through Keebo’s public APIs

The Takeaway

This enterprise transitioned from reactive cost management to proactive data platform mastery. With Keebo, they gained not just savings—but sustainable optimization, transparency, and confidence to scale their Snowflake environment intelligently.
