Pre-Migration: Baseline and Prepare

Create a complete inventory and establish trust baselines before any data is moved.

‍What Sifflet enables

• End-to-end lineage mapping across your on-prem estate, so you know exactly which tables, dashboards, and KPIs depend on each other before changing pipelines.

• Automated data profiling and health scoring to establish quality baselines (volumes, distributions, freshness, schema shape) for every critical asset.

• Domain-level ownership so each business area knows its scope and responsibilities ahead of the migration.

• Monitors as Code to version and package all checks that will run pre- and post-migration.

‍

‍Outcome: A clear, auditable understanding of what “good” looks like before the first batch of data is moved.

During Migration: Parallel Validation and Controlled Cutover

Continuously validate data between your on-prem and Snowflake environments.

‍What Sifflet enables

• Automated cross-environment comparison checks using custom SQL monitors, dynamic tests, and Sifflet’s failing-rows view.

• Adaptive anomaly detection with seasonal awareness to catch regressions introduced by new pipelines or refactored logic.

• Incident-centric workflow to consolidate related alerts, generate AI-driven root cause analysis, and route to the right domain team.

• Field-level lineage to understand the blast radius of every upstream change as migration waves progress.

‍

‍Outcome: Fast detection of mismatches, broken joins, missing data, or schema drift without manual spot-checking.

Post-Migration: Stabilise and Scale

Ensure production-grade reliability in Snowflake after cutover.

‍What Sifflet enables

• Auto-coverage and Monitor Recommendations (Sentinel) to close blind spots and automatically instrument new Snowflake tables.

• BI-embedded notifications (Power BI, Tableau, Looker) to alert business teams when downstream metrics change.

• Data Product views and SLAs to formalise trust in the new ecosystem and expose quality metrics to stakeholders.

• Cost-efficient observability with workload tagging and percent compute overhead to keep Snowflake spend predictable.

‍Outcome: A stable, trusted Snowflake environment with observability built in, not bolted on.

Frequently asked questions

How does data observability differ from traditional data quality monitoring?

Great question! Traditional data quality monitoring focuses on pre-defined rules and tests, but it often falls short when unexpected issues arise. Data observability, on the other hand, provides end-to-end visibility using telemetry instrumentation like metrics, metadata, and lineage. This makes it possible to detect anomalies in real time and troubleshoot issues faster, even in complex data environments.

Can MCP help with root cause analysis in data systems?

Absolutely. MCP gives LLMs the ability to retain memory across multi-step interactions and call external tools, which is incredibly useful for root cause analysis. At Sifflet, we use this to build agents that can pinpoint anomalies, trace data lineage, and surface relevant logs automatically.

How can data lineage tracking help with root cause analysis?

Data lineage tracking shows how data flows through your systems and how different assets depend on each other. This is incredibly helpful for root cause analysis because it lets you trace issues back to their source quickly. With Sifflet’s lineage capabilities, you can understand both upstream and downstream impacts of a data incident, making it easier to resolve problems and prevent future ones.

Can data lineage help with regulatory compliance such as GDPR?

Absolutely. Data lineage supports data governance by mapping data flows and access rights, which is essential for compliance with regulations like GDPR. Features like automated PII propagation help teams monitor sensitive data and enforce security observability best practices.

Can container-based environments improve incident response for data teams?

Absolutely. Containerized environments paired with observability tools like Kubernetes and Prometheus for data enable faster incident detection and response. Features like real-time alerts, dynamic thresholding, and on-call management workflows make it easier to maintain healthy pipelines and reduce downtime.

How does Sifflet help improve data discovery across my organization?

Sifflet consolidates metadata from your entire data stack into a centralized Data Catalog, making it easier for data stakeholders to discover, understand, and trust data. With features like enriched metadata, Snowflake tags, and BigQuery labels, data discovery becomes faster and more intuitive, reducing time spent searching for the right assets.

How does Shippeo’s use of data pipeline monitoring enhance internal decision-making?

By enriching and aggregating operational data, Shippeo creates a reliable source of truth that supports product and operations teams. Their pipeline health dashboards and observability tools ensure that internal stakeholders can trust the data driving their decisions.

How does Full Data Stack Observability help improve data quality at scale?

Full Data Stack Observability gives you end-to-end visibility into your data pipeline, from ingestion to consumption. It enables real-time anomaly detection, root cause analysis, and proactive alerts, helping you catch and resolve issues before they affect your dashboards or reports. It's a game-changer for organizations looking to scale data quality efforts efficiently.
