Understand and control your data platform costs.
DSC Optimizer helps teams monitor, analyze, and optimize Snowflake usage so cloud spend stays predictable as data usage grows.
What DSC Optimizer Does
As data platforms scale, cloud costs become harder to understand and easier to mismanage. Usage patterns shift, workloads evolve, and small inefficiencies quietly turn into material spend.
DSC Optimizer ingests metadata from Snowflake and turns it into clear, actionable insight. 

It provides visibility into how your data platform is being used today, highlights inefficiencies, and recommends changes that help teams control costs without disrupting analytics or operations.
Â
This is not a billing export or a static cost report. It is a practical tool built to support ongoing cost awareness and optimization.

Core Capabilities
Cost Visibility
Interactive charts and dashboards show how Snowflake usage evolves over time, broken down by key drivers such as warehouses, queries, and workloads.
Usage Analysis
Optimization Recommendations
Designed for Operators

Usage Analysis
Identify which queries, processes, and patterns are driving spend, including inefficient or underutilized resources.
Optimization Recommendations
Actionable recommendations highlight opportunities to reduce costs safely, such as resizing compute, adjusting scheduling, or cleaning up unused workloads.
Designed for Operators
Built for teams responsible for running data platforms, not just finance. Recommendations are practical, transparent, and grounded in how Snowflake actually works.
Why We Built It
We built DSC Optimizer to solve a problem we see repeatedly in client environments.
Â
Cloud data platforms make it easy to scale analytics, but much harder to maintain cost discipline over time. Teams often lack a clear view of how usage decisions translate into spend, especially as more users, tools, and workloads come online

DSC Optimizer reflects how we approach cost optimization in our consulting work: understand usage first, make informed changes second, and avoid cost cutting that breaks trust in data.
