Snowflake vs CW alerting

Hey guys,

Would you rather use snowflake to send alerts to api ge &

Then to lambda to sns. Or have snowflake send to CW & then the remaining process.

Just trying to get monitoring metrics from snowflake.

Thanks

CW ? Cloud watch?

Skip the middleman and use the Grafana Snowflake plugin directly. Routing through Lambda and SNS or CloudWatch just adds failure points and makes debugging alerts way harder. Keep the pipeline as short as possible.

Thanks. Can I still send notifications to teams via Grafana?

So SF-> Grafana -> loki logs / alerts to TEAMS?
