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...

    A data engineer, sitting in a modern high-rise office with a city skyline visible through large windows, is deep in thought. In front of him, a holographic interface displays a comparison between Gen1 and Gen2 Snowflake Warehouses. On the left, Gen1 Snowflake Warehouse is represented by stacked layers, implying its older architecture. On the right, Gen2 Snowflake Warehouse is shown with a cloud icon labeled with key features like
