Data engineering with the power of open-source
A large and active community continuously contributes to open-source technologies, driving faster innovation and transparent, efficient bug resolution. Open source not only supports public knowledge-sharing, but also provides powerful, sustainable solutions for your day-to-day business challenges.
What is open-source software?
Open source software is software whose source code is freely available for anyone to view, improve and use. This means the underlying code isn’t owned by any person or enterprise: instead, it is built on the principle of shared contributions to build success.
Developers largely rely on open-source components for most things they build, even if they work for companies that sell proprietary software. This is because open-source software evolves faster and is more reliable, as its code is publicly available to inspect and test.

Dagster
Dagster is an open-source data orchestrator platform used to build, manage and monitor data-driven workflows. It is designed to support robust, scalable and testable data pipelines and offers a modern, flexible approach to data engineering.
Unlike traditional workflow orchestrators, Dagster focuses not only on task execution, but also on modelling the logic and dependencies of data. This makes it possible to define data flows explicitly and detect errors early.
In addition, Dagster promotes a software engineering approach to data pipelines through version control, testing and modularity. This makes it particularly suitable for teams that value reproducibility, scalability and collaboration within their data infrastructure.
