Sifflet centralizes documentation for all your data assets, including DAGs, models, and dashboards. This makes it easier for teams to search, explore dependencies, and maintain strong data governance practices.

Accessibility is a core part of our design philosophy. We ensure that key indicators in our observability tools, such as data freshness checks or pipeline health statuses, are communicated using both color and iconography. This approach supports inclusive experiences for users with visual impairments, including color blindness.

Data ingestion is the process of collecting and loading data from various sources into a central system like a data lake or warehouse. It's the first step in your data pipeline and is critical for enabling real-time metrics, analytics, and operational decision-making. Without reliable ingestion, your downstream analytics and data observability efforts can quickly fall apart.

Absolutely! With Sifflet’s data lineage tracking, users can view the full column-level lineage from ingestion to consumption. This transparency helps users understand how each metric is computed and how it relates to other data or metrics in the pipeline.

When evaluating an observability platform, look for strong data lineage tracking, real-time metrics collection, anomaly detection capabilities, and broad integrations across your data stack. Features like field-level lineage, ease of setup, and user-friendly dashboards can make a big difference too. At Sifflet, we believe observability should empower both technical and business users with the context they need to trust and act on data.

With more teams depending on data for everyday decisions, data reliability has become a top priority. It’s not just about infrastructure uptime anymore, but also about ensuring the data itself is accurate, fresh, and trustworthy. Tools for data quality monitoring and root cause analysis help teams catch issues early and maintain confidence in their analytics.

Great question! While data quality monitoring focuses on alerting teams when data deviates from expected parameters, data observability goes further by providing context through data lineage tracking, real-time metrics, and root cause analysis. This holistic view helps teams not only detect issues but also understand and fix them faster, making it a more proactive approach.

Sifflet is designed to monitor subtle changes in data distributions, which is key for data drift detection. This helps teams catch shifts in data that could negatively impact AI model performance. By continuously analyzing incoming data and comparing it to historical patterns, Sifflet ensures your models stay aligned with the most relevant and reliable inputs.
