IBM® Databand® is observability software for data pipelines and warehouses that automatically collects metadata to build historical baselines, detect anomalies and triage alerts to remediate data quality issues.

How it works:

1. Collect: Databand automatically collects metadata to gain immediate visibility, so data platform teams have a standard method for customized data quality validations.
2. Baseline: Next, Databand builds historical baselines based on common run and data behaviors, essentially profiling the data pipeline landscape.
3. Alert: Once the historical baseline is established, Databand alerts on anomalies and rules based on deviations relative to the profile and/or rule breaches.
4. Remediate: Lastly, Databand allows you to create smart communication workflows to remediate data quality issues and keep data deliveries on track.
