BI Tools

What Is a BI Tool?

Business Intelligence (BI) tools are the components within your data architecture that allow you to interact with your data visually (via capabilities like charts and reports) to generate insights and perform analytics.

Why Connect Sifflet to Your BI Tools?

Integrating Sifflet with your BI tool allows you to:

• Access the upstream lineage of your BI assets to evaluate the impact of data incidents and determine the quality of the data/metrics in the BI layer.
• Catalog your different assets (dashboards, charts, etc.) and access various metadata retrieved from your BI system and enriched in Sifflet (owners, descriptions, tags, etc.).
• Have real-time access to the impact of data incidents on a given BI asset without leaving your BI tool, thanks to the Sifflet Insights browser extension.
