Slowly Changing Dimension Type 2 (SCD2) patterns are widely used in Snowflake-based Financial Services platforms to preserve full historical change for regulatory, analytical, and audit purposes. However, Snowflake’s architecture differs fundamentally from file-oriented lakehouse systems, requiring distinct design and operational choices. This article provides practical, production-focused guidance for operating large-scale SCD2 Bronze layers on Snowflake. It explains how to use Streams, Tasks, micro-partition behaviour, batching strategies, and cost-aware configuration to ensure predictable performance, controlled spend, and long-term readiness for analytics and AI workloads in regulated environments.
