Interesting, thanks for sharing. I'll definitely take a look, although at this point I am so comfortable with Snakemake, it is a bit hard to imagine what would convince me to move to another tool. But I like the idea of composable pipelines: I am building a tool (too early to share) that would allow to lay Snakemake pipelines on top of each other using semi-automatic data annotations similar to how it is done in kedro (https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro).

Airflow is an incredibly powerful framework to use in production, but a little unweildy for anything else. You can use something like Kedro (https://github.com/quantumblacklabs/kedro) to get started building pipelines with pure Python functions. Kedro has its own pipeline visualiser and also has an Airflow plugin that can automatically help you generate airflow pipelines from Kedro pipelines. https://github.com/quantumblacklabs/kedro-airflow
In Introduction to Apache Airflow
> Is it a processing solution? Not really, since it suggests you can offload the heavy lifting to an engine, eg. spark. An orchestrator? Apparently not, because that's a complementary product. So... it's like, a configuration management tool? I actually had the same questions when I was first introduced to Kedro! In my case, I didn't understand the value proposition over something like Apache Beam. After using it, I feel like Kedro provides: 1. a consistent structure across analytics pipelines. It's easy to start and pick up other Kedro projects after you've used it once. 2. convenient and consistent I/O via the data catalog. The fact that we can configure and swap out data sources at ease is a huge plus, and we also rely heavily on data versioning. 3. easy integration with existing frameworks (PySpark, vanilla P

andas, Dask, Airflow, Luigi, etc.) Additionally, it aligns well with standards we have internally, like data layering. (edit: Apparently this is also part of the FAQ: https://kedro.readthedocs.io/en/latest/06_resources/01_faq.h... Who knew!) > Personally, I feel mystified why you would use something like this rather than a more mature product like say, Spark, that natively supports clustering, etc, which is what I would really like to see in the FAQ. I'd say 80-90% of projects at QuantumBlack use (Py)Spark, so we've built out `SparkDataSet`s, `pandas_to_spark` and `spark_to_pandas` utility decorators, etc. There's a brief integration tutorial here: https://github.com/quantumblacklabs/kedro/tree/develop/kedro... Full disclosure: I'm a data engineer at QuantumBlack (if it wasn't obvious already!)
