Snowflake Data Types: Practical Cheat Sheet, Aliases, and VARIANT Examples

Wesley Allan
May 03, 2026
Most Snowflake data type guides are dictionaries. They list the types and describe the syntax, but stop there. That is fine for orientation. It does not help an engineer who is staring at a slow query and wondering whether the VARCHAR/STRING mix in the DDL is causing it...
