Sifflet helps teams stay on top of SLA compliance with proactive data freshness checks, anomaly detection, and incident tracking. Business users can rely on health indicators and lineage views to verify data quality before making decisions, reducing the risk of costly errors due to unreliable data.

Great question! By integrating with dbt Core, Sifflet enhances data observability across your entire data stack. It helps you monitor dbt test coverage, map tests to downstream dependencies using data lineage tracking, and consolidate metadata like tags and descriptions, all in one place.

Classification tags help define the structure and importance of your data, which in turn makes it easier to configure real-time metrics and alerts. For example, tagging a 'country' field as low cardinality allows teams to monitor sales data by region, enabling faster anomaly detection and more actionable real-time alerts.

Reverse ETL is a game-changer for operational analytics. It moves data from your warehouse back into business tools like CRMs or marketing platforms. This enables teams across the organization to act on insights directly from the data warehouse. It’s a perfect example of how data integration has evolved to support autonomy and real-time metrics in decision-making.

Great design is essential in data observability platforms because it helps users navigate complex workflows with ease and confidence. At Sifflet, we believe that combining intuitive UX with a visually consistent UI empowers Data Engineers and Analysts to monitor data quality, detect anomalies, and ensure SLA compliance more efficiently.

MCP helps LLMs become active participants in data quality monitoring by giving them access to structured resources like schema definitions, data validation rules, and profiling metrics. At Sifflet, we use this to detect anomalies, enforce data contracts, and ensure SLA compliance more effectively.

A data catalog is critical because it helps teams find, understand, and trust their data. It centralizes metadata, making data assets searchable and understandable, which reduces duplication, speeds up analytics, and supports data governance. When paired with data observability tools, it becomes a powerful foundation for proactive data management.

Sifflet provides a comprehensive observability platform that monitors the health of data pipelines through features like pipeline error alerting, data freshness checks, and ingestion latency tracking. This helps teams identify issues early and maintain SLA compliance across their data workflows.
