Multi-cluster virtual warehouses in Snowflake are designed to manage user and query concurrency needs. They allow for the allocation of additional clusters of compute resources, either statically or dynamically, to handle increased loads and reduce or eliminate the queuing of concurrent queries2.

 In Snowflake, each size increase in virtual warehouses doubles the number of servers. Therefore, if a sizeSmall virtual warehouse is made up of two servers, a Large warehouse, which is two sizes larger, would be made up of eight servers (2 servers for Small, 4 for Medium, and 8 for Large)2.

Size specifies the amount of compute resources available per cluster in a warehouse. Snowflake supports the following warehouse sizes:

 Snowflake’s architecture is described as a multi-cluster, shared data architecture. This design combines the simplicity of a shared-disk architecture with the performance and scale-out benefits of a shared-nothing architecture, using a central repository accessiblefrom all compute nodes2.
