While tools like Fivetran/dbt solve transformation, and new engines like Proton tackle streaming, the industry still has a massive, unaddressed architectural failure in the ingestion layer.
The F.A.F. (Functional Architectural Flaw) is why schema drift happens silently. It's not a bug; it's a structural weakness that makes every single analytics model built on top of it fundamentally untrustworthy.
Until the data is validated at the point of entry, ETL tools are just transforming garbage. We've developed a containment protocol for this specific flaw. It requires low-level architectural intervention, not just another dashboard.
If your models keep breaking for "unknown reasons," F.A.F. is the answer.
