AI-Based Data Observability for Modern Data Platforms

This article presents an AI-based data observability framework for modern data platforms. It focuses on anomaly detection, predictive analytics, and automated root cause analysis across the five pillars of data observability: freshness, distribution, volume, schema, and lineage. The paper reports significant improvements over traditional monitoring approaches, including 65% reduction in mean time to resolution and 42% improvement in data trust scores.
