Data Observability for Analytics Engineers
Elementary enables you to monitor your data and dbt operation.
To learn more, refer to our main repo, and live demo.
After adding the package to packages.yml
and running dbt deps
, add to your dbt_project.yml
:
models:
## elementary models will be created in the schema '<your_schema>_elementary'
## see docs: https://docs.elementary-data.com/
elementary:
+schema: 'elementary'
And run dbt run --select elementary
.
Check out the full documentation.
The package automatically uploads the dbt artifacts artifacts and run results to your tables in your data warehouse.
Elementary dbt tests collect metrics and metadata over time, such as freshness, volume, schema changes, distribution, cardinality, etc. Executed as any other dbt tests, the Elementary tests alert on anomalies and outliers.
Elementary tests are configured and executed like native tests in your project!
Example of Elementary test config in properties.yml
:
models:
- name: your_model_name
config:
elementary:
timestamp_column: updated_at
tests:
- elementary.table_anomalies
- elementary.all_columns_anomalies
