Automatically Monitor entire Schemas
Automatically Monitoring Tables is being simplified. The new Automatic Monitoring configuration will ensure you can cover entire schemas or databases with default monitoring!
The Following monitors can be applied automatically:
Freshness (Metadata): Dynamically alerts if the time since the last update
Volume (Full Table Scan): Dynamically Alerts if the total number of rows in the table diverges from its usual norm.
Schema Change: Alerts if the schema changes, such as a column dropping from a table.
All these monitors will only be created on Tables and will query metadata so they should all be pretty much Free to run on your warehouse !
To access this feature navigate to our new Settings Menu and to the Automatic Monitoring section
Note: New tables added to the activated schemas will automatically be monitored when detected by Sifflet.
Created Monitors can easily be filtered on via the Creation Method Filter of the Monitors page:
This feature is in Beta:
- Currently limited to 1000 monitored datasets
- Will allow selection of dataset types other than Tables in the future, such as Views ( impacting the query cost on the warehouse )
- Subject to monitor availability on the technology: i.e. Metadata Freshness only available on select Technologies.
