Aligning KPIs with your data team’s goals is essential for clarity and motivation. When everyone knows what success looks like and how it’s measured, it creates a sense of purpose. Tools that support data quality monitoring and metrics collection can help track those KPIs effectively and ensure your team is on the right path.

With data observability, teams get real-time metrics and deep context around data issues. This means faster incident response and better SLA compliance. Sifflet’s observability platform helps you pinpoint root causes quickly, reducing downtime and giving stakeholders confidence in the reliability of your data.

Look for features like self-service discovery, automated metadata collection, and end-to-end data lineage. Scalability is key too, especially as your data grows. Tools like Sifflet also integrate data observability, so you can monitor data quality and pipeline health while exploring your data assets.

Sifflet is designed to ensure data quality and reliability, which are critical for AI initiatives. Our observability platform includes features like data freshness checks, anomaly detection, and root cause analysis, making it easier for teams to maintain high standards and trust in their analytics and AI models.

By enriching and aggregating operational data, Shippeo creates a reliable source of truth that supports product and operations teams. Their pipeline health dashboards and observability tools ensure that internal stakeholders can trust the data driving their decisions.

Data profiling helps by automatically identifying and tagging personal data across your systems. This is vital for GDPR, where you need to know exactly what PII you have and where it's stored. Combined with data quality monitoring and metadata discovery, profiling makes it easier to manage consent, enforce data contracts, and ensure data security compliance.

Sifflet supports SLA compliance by offering intelligent alerting, dynamic thresholding, and real-time dashboards that track incident metrics and resolution times. Its data reliability dashboard gives teams visibility into SLA adherence and helps prioritize issues based on business impact, streamlining incident management workflows and reducing mean time to resolution.

Standardization is key to maintaining control as your dbt project grows. Sifflet supports this by centralizing metadata and enabling compliance monitoring through features like data contracts enforcement and asset tagging. This ensures consistency, improves data governance, and reduces the risk of data drift or unmonitored critical assets.
