Airflow Timetable. This new concept introduced in Airflow 2.2 is going to change your way of scheduling your data pipelines. Or I would say, you’re finally going to have all the freedom and flexibility you ever dreamt of for scheduling your DAGs. What if you want to run your DAG for specific schedule intervals with “holes” in between?

Have you ever asked a data scientist if they wanted their code to run faster? You would probably get a more varied response asking if the earth is flat. It really isn’t any different from anything else in tech, faster is almost always better. One of the best ways to make a substantial improvement in processing time is to, if you haven’t already, switched from CPUs to GPUs.

Was Nikola Tesla a scientist or engineer? How about Edison? Or Da Vinci? It’s hard to give a solid answer, right? These men didn’t stop at scientific research and ended up conceptualizing or engineering their inventions. One discipline goes hand in hand with another. In the modern world, this distinction is even more vague. Engineers are not only the ones bearing helmets and operating on construction sites.

Summary: DataBrain, a SaaS company, was using PostgreSQL through Amazon RDS to land and query incoming customer data. However, PostgreSQL couldn’t scale, quickly ingest schemaless data, or efficiently run analytics as DataBrain’s data grew. Plus, incoming customer data had a dynamic schema, making it painful and expensive for DataBrain to clean the data for PostgreSQL and run queries.
