Dagster

Python data pipeline orchestrator for declaring, running and monitoring data assets as Python functions.

Dagster is a Python data pipeline orchestrator for declaring, running and monitoring data assets written as Python functions. It is installed from the PyPI package named dagster. The project publishes a GraphQL API served by its webserver, which lets clients query runs and launch job executions.

Worth knowing

The homepage states that Dagster is now part of Prefect. The GraphQL API page describes the API as still evolving, with much of it meant for internal use by the webserver.
