Dagster
In plain terms
A modern orchestrator for data pipelines.
Going deeper
Dagster builds, schedules, and monitors data workflows with a focus on data assets, testing, and developer experience. It treats data pipelines as software.
Under the hood
Asset-centric model and strong typing/observability distinguish it from task-only schedulers like Airflow.
Examples
Data orchestration, ETL/ELT, data assets, pipelines, modern data stack.
Think of it like...
Like a project manager for data, tracking each dataset as a deliverable.
