Frequently asked questions

When should I consider using a point solution like Anomalo or Bigeye instead of a full observability platform?

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.

Can non-technical users benefit from Sifflet’s data observability platform?

Absolutely. Sifflet is designed to be accessible to everyone. With an intuitive UI and our AI Assistant, even non-technical users can set up data quality monitors, track real-time metrics, and contribute to data governance without writing a line of code.

What is data lineage and why is it important for data teams?

Data lineage is a visual map that shows how data flows from its source through transformations to its final destination, like dashboards or ML models. It's essential for data teams because it enables faster root cause analysis, improves data trust, and supports smarter change management. When paired with a data observability platform like Sifflet, lineage becomes a powerful tool for tracking data quality and ensuring SLA compliance.

How does Sifflet help Adaptavist detect issues before they impact stakeholders?

Sifflet enables real-time metrics and data freshness checks that surface anomalies before they escalate. With features like alerting, lineage tracking, and pre-prod validation, teams at Adaptavist can spot and fix problems early, reducing surprise outages and improving SLA compliance.

What are some common consequences of bad data?

Bad data can lead to a range of issues including financial losses, poor strategic decisions, compliance risks, and reduced team productivity. Without proper data quality monitoring, companies may struggle with inaccurate reports, failed analytics, and even reputational damage. That’s why having strong data observability tools in place is so critical.

How do modern storage platforms like Snowflake and S3 support observability tools?

Modern platforms like Snowflake and Amazon S3 expose rich metadata and access patterns that observability tools can monitor. For example, Sifflet integrates with Snowflake to track schema changes, data freshness, and query patterns, while S3 integration enables us to monitor ingestion latency and file structure changes. These capabilities are key for real-time metrics and data quality monitoring.

What future observability goals has Carrefour set?

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.

What is data observability and why is it important for modern data teams?

Data observability is the ability to monitor, understand, and troubleshoot data health across the entire data stack. It's essential for modern data teams because it helps ensure data reliability, improves trust in analytics, and prevents costly issues caused by broken data pipelines or inaccurate dashboards. With the rise of complex infrastructures and real-time data usage, having a strong observability platform in place is no longer optional.
