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.

By ingesting dbt tests into Sifflet, you can apply powerful features like dynamic thresholding, real-time alerts, and incident response automation. It’s a big step up in data reliability and SLA compliance.

What practical steps can companies take to build a data-driven culture?

To build a data-driven culture, start by investing in data literacy, aligning goals across teams, and adopting observability tools that support proactive monitoring. Platforms with features like metrics collection, telemetry instrumentation, and real-time alerts can help ensure data reliability and build trust in your analytics.

What’s Sifflet’s vision for data observability in 2025?

Our 2025 vision is all about pushing the boundaries of cloud data observability. We're focusing on deeper automation, AI-driven insights, and expanding our observability platform to cover everything from real-time metrics to predictive analytics monitoring. It's about making data operations more resilient, transparent, and scalable.

How did Sifflet help Meero reduce the time spent on troubleshooting data issues?

Sifflet significantly cut down Meero's troubleshooting time by enabling faster root cause analysis. With real-time alerts and automated anomaly detection, the data team was able to identify and resolve issues in minutes instead of hours, saving up to 50% of their time.

How does the Sifflet and Firebolt integration improve data observability?

Great question! By integrating with Firebolt, Sifflet enhances your data observability by offering real-time metrics, end-to-end lineage, and automated anomaly detection. This means you can monitor your Firebolt data warehouse with precision and catch data quality issues before they impact the business.

How does MCP support data quality monitoring in modern observability platforms?

MCP helps LLMs become active participants in data quality monitoring by giving them access to structured resources like schema definitions, data validation rules, and profiling metrics. At Sifflet, we use this to detect anomalies, enforce data contracts, and ensure SLA compliance more effectively.

How does Sifflet support data quality monitoring at scale?

Sifflet uses AI-powered dynamic monitors and data validation rules to automate data quality monitoring across your pipelines. It also integrates with tools like Snowflake and dbt to ensure data freshness checks and schema validations are embedded into your workflows without manual overhead.
