Google BigQuery
Integrate Sifflet with BigQuery to monitor all table types, access field-level lineage, enrich metadata, and gain actionable insights for an optimized data observability strategy.




Metadata-based monitors and optimized queries
Sifflet leverages BigQuery's metadata APIs and relies on optimized queries, ensuring minimal costs and efficient monitor runs.


Usage and BigQuery metadata
Get detailed statistics about the usage of your BigQuery assets, in addition to various metadata (like tags, descriptions, and table sizes) retrieved directly from BigQuery.
Field-level lineage
Have a complete understanding of how data flows through your platform via field-level end-to-end lineage for BigQuery.


External table support
Sifflet can monitor external BigQuery tables to ensure the quality of data in other systems like Google Cloud BigTable and Google Cloud Storage

Frequently asked questions
What should I consider when choosing a data observability tool?
When selecting a data observability tool, consider your data stack, team size, and specific needs like anomaly detection, metrics collection, or schema registry integration. Whether you're looking for open source observability options or a full-featured commercial platform, make sure it supports your ecosystem and scales with your data operations.
What kind of monitoring capabilities does Sifflet offer out of the box?
Sifflet comes with a powerful library of pre-built monitors for data profiling, data freshness checks, metrics health, and more. These templates are easily customizable, supporting both batch data observability and streaming data monitoring, so you can tailor them to your specific data pipelines.
Why is technology critical to scaling data governance across teams?
Technology automates key governance tasks such as data classification, access control, and telemetry instrumentation. With the right tools, like a data observability platform, organizations can enforce policies at scale, detect anomalies automatically, and integrate governance into daily workflows. This reduces manual effort and ensures governance grows with the business.
What makes traditional data monitoring insufficient for modern retail operations?
Traditional monitoring often relies on batch processing, leading to delays in inventory updates. It also struggles with data silos, lacks robust data quality monitoring, and is mostly reactive. In contrast, modern observability tools provide real-time insights, dynamic thresholding, and predictive analytics monitoring to keep up with fast-paced retail environments.
What role does data lineage tracking play in observability?
Data lineage tracking is a key part of any robust data observability framework. It helps you understand where your data comes from, how it’s transformed, and where it flows. This visibility is essential for debugging issues, ensuring compliance, and building trust in your data pipelines. It's especially useful when paired with real-time data pipeline monitoring tools.
What is data volume and why is it so important to monitor?
Data volume refers to the quantity of data flowing through your pipelines. Monitoring it is critical because sudden drops, spikes, or duplicates can quietly break downstream logic and lead to incomplete analysis or compliance risks. With proper data volume monitoring in place, you can catch these anomalies early and ensure data reliability across your organization.
Why is data lineage a pillar of Full Data Stack Observability?
At Sifflet, we consider data lineage a core part of Full Data Stack Observability because it connects data quality monitoring with data discovery. By mapping data dependencies, teams can detect anomalies faster, perform accurate root cause analysis, and maintain trust in their data pipelines.
How does Sifflet help improve data reliability for modern organizations?
At Sifflet, we provide a full-stack observability platform that gives teams complete visibility into their data pipelines. From data quality monitoring to root cause analysis and real-time anomaly detection, we help organizations ensure their data is accurate, timely, and trustworthy.
