MCP is a game-changer for incident response automation. By allowing LLMs to interact with telemetry data, call remediation tools, and maintain context over time, MCP enables proactive monitoring and faster resolution. This aligns perfectly with Sifflet’s mission to reduce downtime and improve pipeline resilience.

If you're in a regulated industry or handling sensitive data, observability tools can help you stay compliant. They offer features like audit logging, data freshness checks, and schema validation, which support strong data governance and help ensure SLA compliance.

Looking ahead, Carrefour plans to expand monitoring to more than 1,500 tables, integrate AI-driven anomaly detection, and implement data contracts and SLA monitoring to further strengthen data governance and accountability.

Sifflet extends its end-to-end data observability to Looker, helping you ensure the data powering your dashboards is accurate and reliable. This means fewer surprises and more confidence in your business insights.

Sifflet is integrating deeply with local development tools like dbt and the Sifflet CLI. Soon, you'll be able to define monitors directly in dbt YAML files and run them locally, enabling real-time metrics checks and anomaly detection before deployment, all from your development environment.

We're excited because MCP allows us to build intelligent, context-aware agents that go beyond alerts. With MCP, our observability tools can now support real-time metrics analysis, dynamic thresholding, and even automated remediation. It’s a huge step forward in delivering reliable and scalable data observability.

Yes, many open-source ETL tools like Airbyte or Talend can be extended to support observability features. By integrating them with a cloud data observability platform like Sifflet, you can add layers of telemetry instrumentation, anomaly detection, and alerting. This ensures your open-source stack remains robust, reliable, and ready for scale.

If your team has a narrow focus on anomaly detection or prefers a SQL-first, hands-on approach to monitoring, tools like Anomalo or Bigeye can be great fits. However, for broader needs like data governance, business impact analysis, and cross-functional collaboration, a platform like Sifflet offers more comprehensive data observability.
