Business Continuity

Business continuity in Snowflake is about recovering state, preserving service, and proving it. The platform already maintains highly durable storage and separates compute from data, so the craft is deciding which recovery points matter (minutes vs. days), where they must exist (same region vs. cross-region), and how to exercise them without drama. You get three native levers: Time Travel for short-horizon rewinds, zero-copy cloning for instant snapshots and safe changes, and Fail-safe as the last resort. Around those, you wrap promotion, replication, and a runbook that turns incidents into straightforward SQL.
