As the amount of data that should be collected and handled may keep skyrocketing, it is high time to direct your attention to the potential ways of customizing and optimizing your working processes. Apache Airflow consulting services could offer their help in carrying out the changes you wish to implement.
What is Apache Airflow?
Apache Airflow is an open-source platform that was created for scheduling, automating, and orchestrating data pipelines and workflows. Its initial goal was to serve the needs of data engineers, however, DevOps specialists, software developers, and solution architects could be spotted among the active users of the platform as well.
Apache Airflow workflows are sequences of tasks performed in Python programming language. For the visualization of their workflows and portraying the connections and dependencies between the tasks, users are provided with the graphical interface where the key role is played by Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs). The latest are, respectively, the graph representations of the tasks to be executed.
Apache Airflow may be deployed for personal needs on your laptop as well as for operating more structurally complicated workflows.
What is orchestrating?
Orchestration refers to the management of multiple computer services and the coordination of tasks in order to maximize the performance of the workflow. It aims at optimizing the execution of those tasks that are repeatable and, therefore, may be automated.
Why Apache Airflow automation may be useful?
Automation of the processes with Apache Airflow boosts the efficiency of your enterprise. It enables users to:
- set specific time intervals for the tasks
- track the progress of the workflows
- manage such processes as data migration and integration
- automate report generation
- restore data from scheduled backups in DevOps engineering
Apart from that, the Airflow framework provides integration with other cloud providers and platforms for data collection and processing including BigQuery, Snowflake, Lambda, Cloud SQL, Kubernetes Engine, and Redshift.
Necessity of consulting services
Implementation of Apache Airflow requires careful planning that will match your needs. Despite the wide range of benefits offered by Apache Airflow, the proper maintenance and management of full-fledged data orchestration solutions could be hard to execute.
