Maintaining data quality at scale requires validation, schema management, and proactive monitoring.
Best practices for high-quality event data:
- Data Validation – Use tools like Snowplow’s Enrich process to filter out invalid or duplicate events.
- Schema Management – Define strict data schemas and enforce validation rules with Snowplow’s Iglu Schema Registry.
- Monitoring & Alerting – Use dashboards and alerting tools (Snowplow Insights, third-party platforms) to detect anomalies early.
Automated Testing – Build automated QA into your pipeline to catch data drift or integration issues over time.
