To evaluate Jitsu, send a defined batch of events containing duplicates, missing fields, and late arrivals. Trace each event from ingestion through any transformation to its destination. Compare received counts and fields with the source, and check retries, dead-letter handling, and privacy filtering.
Self-hosting adds several moving parts; size the operational work as well as the ingestion rate. Document schema ownership, replay strategy, and how to remove personal data when required. A pipeline is trustworthy when discrepancies can be detected and corrected.
