Apache Airflow™

by Apache
Orchestration

Apache Airflow™ is an open source platform for orchestrating batch workflows. In Airflow, pipelines are defined in Python code as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), meaning you can generate workflows dynamically and connect them with virtually any technology, either through ready made packages from third party providers or your own extensions. A modular architecture of Airflow and a built in message queue ensures its high scalability. Airflow’s user interface provides overviews and in depth views of pipelines and tasks.
