Can you share details on how much operating that BI SaaS stack costs you monthly?

We’ve been battling Redshift scaling problems so it’s fluctuated a lot over the last 6 months (both up and down). $15k per month to an order of magnitude (not counting Looker licensing).

That seems like a lot. Snowflake typically cuts Redshift bills in half if you are hitting limits with RS

ORLY? Redshift is half the cost of Snowflake for any given level of performance. The bigger your dataset to wider the gap will be.
