Synopsis

Apache Airflow cemented its position as the de facto workflow automation and data orchestration tool; hence, mastering Airflow has become critical for ensuring data reliability and operational efficiency. As Airflow enters the version 3.0 era, shifting towards a decentralized, service-oriented architecture with a native focus on data assets, staying ahead of its design patterns is important for modern data teams.

This book provides a comprehensive journey through the modern patterns of data orchestration. Readers will start with the origins and architecture of Airflow, followed by installation and configuration, core and special features, logging and monitoring, and popular managed versions. Each chapter delivers practical and hands-on insights that will help readers to practice side-by-side.

By the end of this book, readers will possess the practical competencies required to design, develop, test, and deploy production-grade pipelines. Readers will also gain invaluable skills in the latest asset-centric development, micro-orchestration, and modern CI/CD practices, turning them into highly capable engineers ready to tackle complex, enterprise-scale data infrastructure challenges.
