Event Format
Type: Virtual Breakfast Briefing
Duration: 45 minutes
About the Event
Control-M, AutoSys, and Tidal got you through the batch era. They weren't built for the event-driven, GPU-aware workloads production AI now demands - and that gap is quietly stalling AI initiatives before they reach production.
Join Astronomer for a 45-minute breakfast briefing (kit delivered to your door) on why legacy schedulers are hitting a wall, why Apache Airflow has become the default orchestration layer for AI-era teams, and how real customers got off their legacy stack without the cutover risk.
Come with your scheduler questions. Leave with a migration path and a free breakfast!
Start your day the Dishoom way! Everyone who registers for the breakfast briefing will receive a complimentary Dishoom Breakfast Kit, delivered to their door two days before the event. On the day, simply unbox your breakfast, settle in, and enjoy a delicious Dishoom-inspired experience while connecting, learning, and sharing ideas with us.
Agenda
Welcome & Introductions
- Meet the speakers and set the scene for the session
- What we’ll cover and what you’ll take away
Your Scheduler Wasn’t Built for AI
- Why traditional schedulers like Control-M, AutoSys and Tidal struggle with modern data and AI workloads
- The growing cost and complexity of legacy orchestration
- Where traditional job-level monitoring falls short on observability and lineage
The Destination: Apache Airflow
- Why Airflow has become a leading orchestration standard for modern data and AI
- How organisations are using Airflow to support dynamic, event-driven and AI workloads
- Where Airflow is heading next, including agentic and AI orchestration
Making the Move to Airflow with Astronomer
- How Otto, Astronomer’s AI migration agent, accelerates migration from Control-M, AutoSys, Automic and Tidal
- A phased, coexistence-first approach designed to minimise migration risk
- Real-world migration results from organisations including Janus Henderson, Autodesk, Société Générale and West Bend Mutual
- The potential impact: lower TCO, improved performance and greater operational efficiency
Q&A & Closing
- Ask our experts your migration and orchestration questions
- Discuss practical next steps for modernising your orchestration strategy
