Are Signal Messenger's servers able to see who I'm talking to? (self.privacy)

I'm aware of Signal's "no log policy", but I'm wondering if such information is visible to the servers at all. I'm assuming "Sealed sender" is what is supposed to protect this information? If so, how effective is it?

This would have to be available.

Why? If the information is not saved the information is not available.

Because to operate the service they have to know who to dispatch to, which could be monitored in real time.
