Frequently asked questions

Can I customize how sensitive the alerts are in Sifflet’s Freshness Monitor?
Absolutely! Sifflet lets you adjust the sensitivity of your freshness alerts based on your specific needs. Whether you're monitoring ML pipelines or business-critical dashboards, you can fine-tune how strict the system is about detecting anomalies to ensure you're only alerted when it really matters. This is a great way to optimize your incident response automation.
What kind of metadata can I see for a Fivetran connector in Sifflet?
When you click on a Fivetran connector node in the lineage, you’ll see key metadata like source and destination, sync frequency, current status, and the timestamp of the latest sync. This complements Sifflet’s existing metadata like owner and last refresh for complete context.
Can I learn about real-world results from Sifflet customers at the event?
Yes, definitely! Companies like Saint-Gobain will be sharing how they’ve used Sifflet for data observability, data lineage tracking, and SLA compliance. It’s a great chance to hear how others are solving real data challenges with our platform.
What can I expect from Sifflet at Big Data Paris 2024?
We're so excited to welcome you at Booth #D15 on October 15 and 16! You’ll get to experience live demos of our latest data observability features, hear real client stories like Saint-Gobain’s, and explore how Sifflet helps improve data reliability and streamline data pipeline monitoring.
What are some common signs of a data distribution issue?
Some red flags include missing categories, unusual clustering of values, unexpected outliers, or uneven splits that don’t align with business logic. These issues often sneak past volume or schema checks, which is why proactive data quality monitoring and data profiling are so important for catching them early.
Is Sifflet's Data Sharing compatible with cloud data platforms like Snowflake or BigQuery?
Yes, it is! Sifflet currently supports Data Sharing to Snowflake, BigQuery, and S3, with more destinations on the way. This makes it easy to integrate Sifflet into your cloud data observability strategy and leverage your existing infrastructure for deeper insights and proactive monitoring.
Can reverse ETL help with data quality monitoring?
Absolutely. By integrating reverse ETL with a strong observability platform like Sifflet, you can implement data quality monitoring throughout the pipeline. This includes real-time alerts for sync issues, data freshness checks, and anomaly detection to ensure your operational data remains trustworthy and accurate.
What exactly is data observability, and how is it different from traditional data monitoring?
Great question! Data observability goes beyond traditional data monitoring by not only detecting when something breaks in your data pipelines, but also understanding why it matters. While monitoring might tell you a pipeline failed, data observability connects that failure to business impact—like whether your CFO’s dashboard is now showing outdated numbers. It's about trust, context, and actionability.
