Changelog 1.8

Customization features

If there is one word to really sum up this release it is customization. We have added lots of capabilities to help you customize the way you validate your data and route information about incidents to the relevant stakeholders.

Databricks

We have added support for Databricks as our newest data source integration!

Custom SQL validator

We have created a Custom SQL validator. Now you can leverage the power of SQL to create any custom validation of your data. This allow you to not only take advantage of SQL warehouse-specific functionality, but you can also include templates into those queries to fully utilize our segmentation and windowing logic. To help you get started, check out the list of custom SQL recipes.

SQL filter

There is now a SQL filter which allows you to create advanced filters using SQL. The SQL filter works for all Source types, including non-SQL data sources. This allows you to easily combine multiple conditions together in order to filter the data that goes into a validator.

Validator recipes

We have added a new section of Validator recipes to highlight many of the different ways that our existing validators can be used.

Incident severity

We have added a notion of incident severity – basically how extreme an incident is. All validator incidents will now be tagged with a low, medium, or high severity so that you can prioritize and only be notified about the most critical incidents.

User-defined tagging

We have added the ability to tag catalog assets, sources, and validators with user-defined key-value pairs. Utilize this information with our improved Rules to have even more fine-grained control over the notification routing.

Improved notification rules

Our Rules now allow you to use even more information when deciding if and how you want to route incidents. This includes conditions that you compose together based on:

  • Source
  • Source owner
  • Incident type
  • Incident severity
  • Segment values
  • User-defined tags
