feature announcement

Observe by Snowflake now enables a customer journey-first approach to incident management, allowing SREs to start investigations from business impact and efficiently drill down to root cause. This methodology, demonstrated by Capital One, leverages a telemetry data lake and context graphs to provide clear impact assessment and streamlined troubleshooting. The platform introduces AI SRE, which operates over the same context graph to accelerate investigations, guiding engineers with evidence and interactive queries up to 10x faster. This integration aims to significantly reduce incident resolution times and improve collaboration across teams.

  • Adopt a Customer Journey-First Approach to Incident Response

    Observe by Snowflake enables organizations like Capital One to start incident investigations from customer interaction layer degradation rather than infrastructure signals. This clarifies business impact and streamlines the path to root cause analysis by defining business interactions upfront.

  • AI SRE Accelerates Root Cause Analysis

    Observe by Snowflake introduces AI SRE, which leverages the same observability context graph to guide investigations and provide supporting evidence in seconds. This new capability significantly boosts productivity, with customers reporting up to 10x faster task completion on average.

  • Three-Step Workflow: From Impact to Root Cause

    The journey-first workflow involves identifying degraded customer interactions, drilling down to the specific failing operation or service, and confirming the root cause using traces and logs. This process ensures all stakeholders work from the same data and context, reducing reconciliation time.

  • Unified Telemetry and Context Graph for Holistic View

    Customer journeys are one domain within Observe's broader telemetry data lake and context graph, which connects services, infrastructure, and business entities. This unified model allows seamless pivoting across different data types, ensuring context remains intact throughout the investigation.
