ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before storing it, while ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads raw data first, then transforms it. With modern cloud storage, ELT is often preferred for its flexibility and scalability. Whichever method you choose, pairing it with strong data pipeline monitoring ensures smooth operations.

To ensure high data quality during transformation, start with strong data profiling and cleaning steps, then use mapping and validation rules to align with business logic. Incorporating data lineage tracking and anomaly detection also helps maintain integrity. Observability tools like Sifflet make it easier to enforce these practices and continuously monitor for data drift or schema changes that could affect your pipeline.

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.

Great question! To measure data quality, you can track key metrics like accuracy, completeness, consistency, relevance, and freshness. These indicators help you evaluate the health of your data and are often part of a broader data observability strategy that ensures your data is reliable and ready for business use.

Great question! Data quality monitoring helps ensure that the data you're relying on is accurate, timely and complete. In high-stress or uncertain situations, poor data can lead to poor decisions. By implementing scalable data quality monitoring, including anomaly detection and data freshness checks, you can avoid the 'garbage in, garbage out' problem and make confident, informed decisions.
