When evaluating observability tools, consider factors like ease of setup, support for real-time metrics, data freshness checks, and integration with your existing stack. Look for platforms that offer strong data pipeline monitoring, business context in alerts, and cost transparency. Tools like Sifflet also provide fast time-to-value and support for both batch and streaming data observability.

Absolutely! You can customize routing based on alert metadata like domain, severity, or affected system. This ensures the right team gets notified without any manual triage, making your data pipeline monitoring more actionable and reliable.

At Sifflet, we believe data quality isn't one-size-fits-all. Our observability platform blends technical robustness with business context, offering customized data quality monitoring that adapts to your specific use cases. This means you get both reliable pipelines and meaningful metrics that align with your business goals.

Executive sponsorship is essential for scaling data governance beyond grassroots efforts. As organizations mature, top-down support ensures proper budget allocation for observability tools, data pipeline monitoring, and team resources. When leaders are personally invested, it helps shift the mindset from reactive fixes to proactive data quality and governance practices.

As more businesses rely on data to drive decisions, ensuring data reliability is critical. Data observability provides transparency into the health of your data assets and pipelines, helping teams catch issues early, stay compliant with SLAs, and ultimately build trust in their data.

We hear this a lot — too many alerts, not enough clarity. At Sifflet, we focus on intelligent alerting by combining metadata, data lineage tracking, and usage patterns to prioritize what really matters. Instead of just flagging that something broke, our platform tells you who’s affected, why it matters, and how to fix it. That means fewer false positives and more actionable insights, helping you cut through the noise and focus on what truly impacts your business.

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.

For sure! Our CEO, Salma Bakouk, will be speaking about the top data trends to watch in 2025, including how GenAI and advanced anomaly detection are shaping the future of observability platforms. You’ll walk away with actionable insights for your data strategy.
