SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Data Vault integrity testing is complex and time-consuming; this skill automates the process with ad-hoc validation queries or Snowflake DMF-based continuous monitoring to ensure ongoing data quality.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Proactive, reactive, and periodic data quality checks across hubs, links, and satellites.
  • DMF-based monitoring provides near-real-time alerts after each DML commit and a centralized status view.
  • Lightweight deployment: attach 17 DMFs to vault artefacts, create a reportable status view, and query results to close data gaps.

Quick Start

Attach the DMFs to vault tables and start using the ad-hoc and DMF-based tests to validate data vault integrity.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Data Vault integrity testing in Snowflake?

You can automate Data Vault integrity testing by attaching predefined Snowflake Data Metric Functions (DMFs) to hub, link, and satellite artefacts, enabling continuous monitoring and ad-hoc validation queries across staging and production environments.

What is the best way to monitor Data Vault data quality continuously?

Continuous Data Vault data quality monitoring is achieved by attaching Snowflake DMFs to vault tables, which provides near-real-time alerts after each DML commit and generates a centralized, reportable status view for ongoing oversight.

Do I need Snowflake DMFs to run Data Vault integrity checks?

Yes, Snowflake DMFs are required for DMF-based continuous monitoring, alongside a dedicated testing schema and a defined set of DMFs to attach to your vault artefacts, though ad-hoc validation queries can also be run independently.

Can I run proactive and reactive data quality checks on Data Vault satellites?

Yes, you can apply proactive, reactive, and periodic data quality checks to Data Vault satellites, hubs, and links using either ad-hoc validation queries or DMF-based monitoring across staging and production environments.

What types of Data Vault artefacts are supported by DMF-based monitoring?

DMF-based monitoring supports Data Vault hub, link, and satellite artefacts, allowing you to attach 17 predefined DMFs to these tables to validate integrity and close data gaps in both staging and production environments.

Why are my Data Vault integrity tests failing after DML commits?

Data Vault integrity test failures after DML commits occur when attached Snowflake DMFs detect data quality issues, triggering near-real-time alerts that are visible in a centralized status view to help you identify and close data gaps.
