Re-Imagining Data Observability Ryan Yackel 2022-11-04 10:36:35 Data observability has become one of the hottest topics of the year – and for good reason. Data observability provides an end-to-end view into exactly what’s happening with data pipelines across an organization’s data fabric. And it does so in real time. That means instead of the CEO getting a frantic call at 3 am that something is broken, teams can fix issues proactively before they become a bigger problem.

When one is programming, they may compile the same project dozens of times per day, often after making only small modifications. Recompiling all the modules each time would be extremely time-consuming and disrupt the programmer’s workflow. Therefore, build tools are careful to avoid recompiling files if they know the result would be identical to what is already built.
