Real-time metrics are essential for proactive data pipeline monitoring. Sifflet’s observability tools provide real-time alerts and anomaly detection, helping teams quickly identify and resolve issues before they impact downstream systems or violate SLA compliance.

Besides measurable improvements, data observability also boosts trust in data, enhances decision-making, and improves the overall satisfaction of your data team. When your team spends less time debugging and more time driving value, it fosters a healthier data culture and supports long-term business growth.

Our approach stands out because we treat data observability as both an engineering and organizational concern. By combining telemetry instrumentation, root cause analysis, and business KPI tracking, we help teams align technical reliability with business outcomes.

Great question! This funding round, led by EQT Ventures, allows us to double down on our mission to make data more reliable and trustworthy. With this investment, we're expanding our data observability platform, enhancing real-time monitoring capabilities, and growing our presence in EMEA and the US.

Great question! While these terms are often used interchangeably, they each mean something different. Data freshness is about how up-to-date your data is. Latency measures the delay from data generation to availability, and timeliness refers to whether that data arrives within expected time windows. Understanding these differences is key to effective data pipeline monitoring and SLA compliance.

The future of data observability is all about scale and responsibility. With AI adoption growing and regulations tightening, businesses need observability tools that can handle unstructured data, ensure SLA compliance, and support security observability. At Sifflet, we're already helping customers monitor ML models and enforce data contracts, and we're excited about building self-healing pipelines and extending observability to new data types.

Agentic observability is our vision for the future — where observability platforms don’t just monitor, they act. Think of it as moving from real-time alerts to intelligent copilots. With features like auto-remediation, dynamic thresholding, and incident response automation, Sifflet is building systems that can detect issues, assess impact, and even resolve known problems on their own. It’s a huge step toward self-healing pipelines and truly proactive data operations.

There are four main types: technical lineage, business lineage, cross-system lineage, and governance lineage. Each serves a different purpose, from debugging pipelines to supporting compliance. Tools like Sifflet offer field-level lineage for deeper insights, helping teams across engineering, analytics, and compliance understand and trust their data.
