Absolutely. Sifflet’s data quality monitoring automatically flags unforeseen values in categorical fields, which is a common issue for analytics engineers. This helps prevent silent errors in your data pipelines and supports better SLA compliance across your analytics workflows.

Data observability plays a key role in Hypebeast’s MLOps strategy by monitoring data quality from ML models before it reaches dashboards or decision systems. This ensures that AI-driven insights are trustworthy and aligned with business goals.

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.

We’ve supercharged our dbt integration! Sifflet now offers deeper metadata visibility and powerful dbt impact analysis for both GitHub and GitLab. This helps you assess the downstream effects of model changes before deployment, boosting your confidence and control in data pipeline monitoring.

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.

We’re expanding support to more BI and transformation tools beyond Looker, and enhancing our ML-based monitoring to group business metrics by domain. This will improve consistency and make it even easier for users to explore metrics across the semantic layer.

SLIs are a fantastic way to measure the health and performance of your data products. By tracking metrics like data freshness, anomaly detection, and real-time alerts, you can ensure your data meets expectations and stays aligned with your team’s SLA compliance goals.

Great question! Metadata management helps you understand what data you have, where it comes from, and how it’s being used. It’s a critical part of data governance and plays a huge role in improving data discovery, trust, and overall data reliability. With the right metadata strategy, your team can find the right data faster and make better decisions.
