Decision brief
whylogs is an open-source data logging library that provides detailed data quality monitoring and model performance tracking over time. It supports privacy-preserving data collection to ensure robust and safe operations.
Good fit when
- When you need comprehensive data visibility to track changes in datasets and model input features for ML systems
- For quick identification of issues like training-serving skew, concept drift, and model performance degradation
Avoid when
- When limited to using closed-source tools as whylogs is open source under the Apache-2.0 license
- In environments where privacy-preserving features are not required or can be handled through other means

What is whylogs
whylogs is an open source library for logging any kind of data. With whylogs, users are able to generate summaries of their datasets (called whylogs profiles) which they can use to:
- Track changes in their dataset
- Create data constraints to know whether their data looks the way it should
- Quickly visualize key summary statistics about their datasets
These three functionalities enable a variety of use cases for data scientists, machine learning engineers, and data engineers:
- Detect data drift in model input features
- Detect training-serving skew, concept drift, and model performance degradation
- Validate data quality in model inputs or in a data pipeline
- Perform exploratory data analysis of massive datasets
- Track data distributions & data quality for ML experiments
- Enable data auditing and governance across the organization
- Standardize data documentation practices across the organization
- And more

Python Quickstart
Installing whylogs using the pip package manager is as easy as running pip install whylogs in your terminal.
From here, you can quickly log a dataset:
import whylogs as why
import pandas as pd
#dataframe
df = pd.read_csv("path/to/file.csv")
results = why.log(df)
And there you have it, you now have a whylogs profile. To learn more about what a whylogs profile is and what you can do with it, read on.
