Build collective responsibility for data quality

Maintaining data quality is a whole lot easier when responsibility for critical data is clearly mapped to relevant stakeholders. When you give them the visibility and tools to rapidly respond to issues too, data reliability can be taken to the next level. Synq can help with all this.

Align teams around a strong data-ownership model

Responsibility for data quality should be shared both within and beyond your data team. Synq lets you align ownership across engineering, BI analysts, analytics engineers, and business stakeholders. An intelligent alerting system ensures the right people know when to act.

“As a data team you sit so far downstream. Each time someone in the operations team makes an error in a spreadsheet we have to deal with it.“ — How Instabee achieved 5-minute operational issue resolution times?

Create an ownership structure in minutes

There’s no more need to go through a soul-destroying tagging process to express ownership of items. Synq can define rules to instantly create an ownership structure in a variety of ways:

By dbt metadata
Tracks data size changes, quickly spotting and alerting on anomalies.
By folder structure
Ensures data growth follows expected patterns, guarding against irregularities.
By smart filters
Checks that data updates arrive on schedule, ensuring timeliness.

Reduce the burden for data engineers on call

Automatically route relevant alerts about data issues to the right owners, so on-call engineers don’t have to intervene. Say goodbye to tedious on-call Slack triages to find out who was the last modifier for each failed model. Synq also helps you:

Understand team dependencies
Uncover how data flows through teams and their use cases.
Route errors back to the data producer
For faster, more effective resolutions.
Notify all relevant downstream owners
Identify and notify stakeholders about issues that affect their data use cases.

Get to the bottom of issues without leaving Slack

Relevant, targeted and actionable alerts help team members quickly understand what happened and what to do next.

Ensure all details are available in Slack
No more wading through logs in multiple tools just to find the exact error message.
Route alerts to the right teams
Set up alerting rules for groups of assets in any of your tools – and route notifications to the right team.
Prevent alert overload
Ensure only the people who need to be aware of the data issue are tagged.

“With Synq, we can manage ownership and importance on top of our data quality controls in dbt. This ensures that important issues get acted on fast and frees up time for the data team that would otherwise have been spent triaging and debugging issues.”
