Dagster

Dagster is a tool that helps organize and run your data workflows automatically. Think of it as a smart manager for all your data tasks. Instead of manually running scripts or remembering which files depend on others, Dagster handles this for you.

What makes Dagster different is how it thinks about data. It tracks your tables, files, and models as important items (called assets) rather than just focusing on the jobs that create them. This helps you see how all your data connects together.

The platform includes features for testing your code before it goes live, checking data quality automatically, and showing you how much your data processes cost. You can use it on your own servers or in the cloud through their managed service.
