The Sifflet AI Assistant enhances data observability by automatically fine-tuning your monitoring setup using machine learning and dynamic thresholds. It continuously adapts to changes in your data pipelines, reducing false positives and ensuring accurate anomaly detection, even as your data scales globally.

At Sifflet, we consider data lineage a core part of Full Data Stack Observability because it connects data quality monitoring with data discovery. By mapping data dependencies, teams can detect anomalies faster, perform accurate root cause analysis, and maintain trust in their data pipelines.

Successful data governance is measured through KPIs that tie directly to business outcomes. This includes metrics like how quickly teams can find data, how often data quality issues are caught before reaching production, and how well teams follow access protocols. Observability tools help track these indicators by providing real-time metrics and alerting on governance-related issues.

Sifflet makes root cause analysis easy by providing complete data lineage tracking for your Firebolt assets. You can trace issues back to their source, whether it's an upstream dbt model or a downstream Looker dashboard, all within a single platform.

Absolutely. Data lineage supports data governance by mapping data flows and access rights, which is essential for compliance with regulations like GDPR. Features like automated PII propagation help teams monitor sensitive data and enforce security observability best practices.
