All Monitor Templates

Here is the list of all the Sifflet Monitor Templates:

Monitor template	Category	Application	Description
Volume	Table-level Health	Table	Counts newly ingested rows and alerts on anomalous behaviour
Row-level Duplicates	Table-level Health	Table	Computes the duplication rate [%] on a row-level and compares it to the expected value based on past behavior.
Freshness	Table-level Health	Table	Verifies whether new rows have been ingested into your table following the expected pattern.
Freshness (Update time gap)	Table-level Health	Table	The monitor fails when the duration since the last update deviates from historical norms.
Schema Change	Table-level Health	Table	Detects any change to the schema: new field(s), removed field(s), existing field(s) with updated types or names.
Metrics	Metrics	Fields: Numeric	The monitor detects changes in an aggregated metric of a field (i.e. Sum)
Custom Metrics	Metrics	Table	The rule fails if the time series returned by the query behaves differently from how it did in the past
Correlated Metrics	Metrics	Fields: Numeric	The monitor fails if defined metrics diverge significantly from one another.
Distribution Change	Field profiling	Fields: All	The monitor fails if the distribution of a given field has changed abnormally compared to a previous run.
Duplicates	Field profiling	Fields: All	The monitor detects anomalies regarding the count of duplicates for a column or a set of columns
Unique	Field profiling	Fields: All	A simplified version of the duplicates monitor that fails if a column or set of columns is not unique
Nulls	Field profiling	Fields: All	The monitor detects anomalies regarding the count of nulls/empties in a column or a set of columns
Value List Validation	Field profiling	Fields: String	The monitor fails if the chosen field has values that are not present in the given list.
Value Range	Field Profiling	Fields: Numeric	The monitor fails if the chosen field has any values outside of a given range.
Referential Integrity	Field profiling	Fields: All	The monitor fails if values in one table are not present in the other table
Is an email	Format validation	Fields: String	The monitor fails if the chosen field contains at least one row that does not have an email format.
Is a phone number	Format validation	Fields: String	The monitor fails if the chosen field contains at least one row that does not have a phone number format. I.e. checking for 6 to 16 digits and will accept the field to contain the following characters +, -, (, )
Is UUID	Format validation	Fields: String	The monitor fails if the chosen field contains at least one row that does not have a UUID format.
Matches regex	Format validation	Fields: String	The rule fails if the selected field contains at least one row that does not match the format specified by the given regular expression.
SQL	Custom	Table	An advanced template to write custom monitors based on business specifics. The SQL query must describe a quality breach on one or more tables within the same data source.
Conditional monitors	Custom	Tables	As for SQL, this template allows writing custom monitors based on business use cases. With conditional statements, no SQL syntax is needed. The rule fails if values are found inside the filtering criteria set by conditional rules.
