Lakeflow Observability: From UI Monitoring to Deep Analytics
Description
Monitoring data pipelines is key to reliability at scale. In this session, we’ll dive into the observability experience in Lakeflow, Databricks’ unified DE solution — from intuitive UI monitoring to advanced event analysis, cost observability and custom dashboards. We’ll walk through the revamped UX for Lakeflow observability, showing how to: Monitor runs and task states, dependencies and retry behavior in the UI Set up alerts for job and pipeline outcomes + failures Use pipeline and job system tables for historical insights Explore run events and event logs for root cause analysis Analyze metadata to understand and optimize pipeline spend How to build custom dashboards using system tables to track performance data quality, freshness, SLAs and failure trends, and drive automated alerting based on real-time signals This session will help you unlock full visibility into your data workflows.
