Using Airflow as a Data Analyst

Airflow is sometimes thought of as primarily a data engineering tool, but its use cases are really much broader. A data analyst’s workflow typically involves ingesting and transforming data to extract insights, then presenting the insights in a manner that allows business stakeholders to easily interpret trends and take appropriate action. Airflow’s ease of use and extensive provider ecosystem make it an ideal tool for orchestrating such analytics workflows.

Improve Your DAGs with Hidden Airflow Features

Apache Airflow is flexible and powerful. It has a rich ecosystem and an incredibly active community. But are you sure you haven’t missed anything? A new feature or concept that could put your DAGs at another level? It can be challenging to keep up with the latest Airflow features, and sometimes we miss the most useful ones. For this webinar, I'd like to introduce you to a couple of lesser-known features of Apache Airflow that can dramatically improve your data pipelines.

Scaling Out Airflow

Airflow is purpose-built for high-scale workloads and high availability on a distributed platform. Since the advent of Airflow 2.0, there are even more tools and features to ensure that Airflow can be scaled to accommodate high-throughput, data-intensive workloads. In this webinar, Alex Kennedy will discuss the process of scaling out Airflow utilizing the Celery and Kubernetes Executor, including the parameters that need to be tuned when adding nodes to Airflow and the thought process behind deciding when it’s a good idea to scale Airflow, horizontally and vertically. Consistent and aggregated logging is key when scaling Airflow, and we will also briefly discuss best practices for logging on a distributed Airflow platform, as well as the pitfalls that many Airflow users experience when designing and building their distributed Airflow platform.

Data Lineage with OpenLineage and Airflow

If one out of your hundreds of DAGs fails, how do you know which downstream datasets have become out-of-date? The answer is data lineage. Data lineage is the complex set of relationships between your jobs and datasets. In this webinar, you'll learn how to use OpenLineage to collect lineage metadata from Airflow and assemble a lineage graph - a picture of your pipeline worth way more than a thousand words.
