Frequently asked questions
Can business users benefit from data observability too, or is it just for engineers?
Absolutely, business users benefit too! Sifflet's UI is built for both technical and non-technical teams. For example, our Chrome extension overlays on BI tools to show real-time metrics and data quality monitoring without needing to write SQL. It helps everyone from analysts to execs make decisions with confidence, knowing the data behind their dashboards is trustworthy.
What made data observability such a hot topic in 2021?
Great question! Data observability really took off in 2021 because it became clear that reliable data is critical for driving business decisions. As data pipelines became more complex, teams needed better ways to monitor data quality, freshness, and lineage. That’s where data observability platforms came in, helping companies ensure trust in their data by making it fully observable end-to-end.
What non-quantifiable benefits can data observability bring to my organization?
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.

It's a powerful way to keep your AI systems responsive and reliable.
