Analytics Trust and Reliability
Shared Understanding. Ultimate Confidence. At Scale.
When everyone knows your data is systematically validated for quality, understands where it comes from and how it's transformed, and is aligned on freshness and SLAs, what’s not to trust?

Always Fresh. Always Validated.
No more explaining data discrepancies to the C-suite. Thanks to automatic and systematic validation, Sifflet ensures your data is always fresh and meets your quality requirements. Stakeholders know when data might be stale or interrupted, so they can make decisions with timely, accurate data.
- Automatically detect schema changes, null values, duplicates, or unexpected patterns that could comprise analysis.
- Set and monitor service-level agreements (SLAs) for critical data assets.
- Track when data was last updated and whether it meets freshness requirements

- Create transparency by helping users understand data pipelines, so they always know where data comes from and how it’s transformed.
- Develop shared understanding in data that prevents misinterpretation and builds confidence in analytics outputs.
- Quickly assess which downstream reports and dashboards are affected


Frequently asked questions
Can Sifflet help me monitor data drift and anomalies beyond what dbt offers?
Absolutely! While dbt is fantastic for defining tests, Sifflet takes it further with advanced data drift detection and anomaly detection. Our platform uses intelligent monitoring templates that adapt to your data’s behavior, so you can spot unexpected changes like missing rows or unusual values without setting manual thresholds.
How does data quality monitoring help improve data reliability?
Data quality monitoring is essential for maintaining trust in your data. A strong observability platform should offer features like anomaly detection, data profiling, and data validation rules. These tools help identify issues early, so you can fix them before they impact downstream analytics. It’s all about making sure your data is accurate, timely, and reliable.
What kinds of metrics can retailers track with advanced observability tools?
Retailers can track a wide range of metrics such as inventory health, stock obsolescence risks, carrying costs, and dynamic safety stock levels. These observability dashboards offer time-series analysis and predictive insights that support better decision-making and improve overall data reliability.
What exactly is data observability, and how is it different from traditional data monitoring?
Great question! Data observability goes beyond traditional data monitoring by not only detecting when something breaks in your data pipelines, but also understanding why it matters. While monitoring might tell you a pipeline failed, data observability connects that failure to business impact—like whether your CFO’s dashboard is now showing outdated numbers. It's about trust, context, and actionability.
What’s on the horizon for data observability as AI and regulations evolve?
The future of data observability is all about scale and responsibility. With AI adoption growing and regulations tightening, businesses need observability tools that can handle unstructured data, ensure SLA compliance, and support security observability. At Sifflet, we're already helping customers monitor ML models and enforce data contracts, and we're excited about building self-healing pipelines and extending observability to new data types.
What role does data lineage tracking play in data discovery?
Data lineage tracking is essential for understanding how data flows through your systems. It shows you where data comes from, how it’s transformed, and where it ends up. This is super helpful for root cause analysis and makes data discovery more efficient by giving you context and confidence in the data you're using.
Why is data lineage tracking considered a core pillar of data observability?
Data lineage tracking lets you trace data across its entire lifecycle, from source to dashboard. This visibility is essential for root cause analysis, especially when something breaks. It helps teams move from reactive firefighting to proactive prevention, which is a huge win for maintaining data reliability and meeting SLA compliance standards.
What kind of monitoring should I set up after migrating to the cloud?
After migration, continuous data quality monitoring is a must. Set up real-time alerts for data freshness checks, schema changes, and ingestion latency. These observability tools help you catch issues early and keep your data pipelines running smoothly.
