SAN FRANCISCO, CA, OCTOBER 24, 2022 – Kensu, the data observation company, announced the launch today Fundamentals of Data Observability: Deploy Trusted End-to-End Data Solutions, published by O’Reilly Media and freely available on Kensu.io. This first data observability book, which sets the standard for data visibility, empowers data teams to deploy trusted, end-to-end data solutions by providing family of engineering best practices and practical use cases.

Data environments have become increasingly complex in recent years, increasing the occurrence of data problems — for example, missing data or schema changes. This evolution forces data teams to waste up to 40% of their time implementing band-aided solutions, preventing them from scaling data usage and creating new value. And despite these efforts, data incidents continue to occur and not only reduce the morale and reputation of data teams, but also affect business decisions, customer experience, and customer experience. Ultimately the profits of the companies.

Fundamentals of data observability

Fundamentals of data observability is O’Reilly’s first book on data observability. It helps data teams understand what data observability is and how it can help them better understand their data usage, troubleshoot data problems, and prevent them from spreading. The use cases detailed by the author, Andy Petrella, can be immediately put into practice so data teams can start observing their data and dramatically increase its reliability. Whether.

Andy Petrella, author and founder of Kensu, said: “Data teams are facing more and more data problems and wasting time and energy trying to solve them to limit their impact. their impact on the products they offer. “We wanted to provide concrete examples of solutions so they can start implementing data visualization today in their existing data warehouse.”

In this book by O’Reilly, readers will learn (how to):

Core principles and benefits of Data Observability

To identify, troubleshoot, and prevent data problems

To implement observability in data projects

To create a reliable communication framework with data consumers

To educate colleagues about the benefits of Data Observability

Chapters of Fundamentals of data observability will be released gradually and can be downloaded for free on Kensu.io. Access to the first three chapters is available on https://www.kensu.io/oreilly-chapter3.
