Airflow and Workflow Orchestration — Gennemtvinger modelvalg, idempotente genforsøg og en publish gate før DAG-kode

Hvad det gør

En design checklist for data pipeline orchestration across Airflow, MWAA, Cloud Composer, Step Functions, Azure Data Factory and Databricks Workflows. It makes you fix the workflow contract, orchestration model, retry idempotency, backfill path and publish gate before writing DAG code, and udløses ved questions about dependencies, sensors, retries, SLAs, backfills, or which orchestrator to use.

Testrapport

Designed the same 40-tenant S3-to-Redshift pipeline twice. The cold answer reached for a stock MWAA DAG: forty S3 sensors, a Python loop building forty TaskGroups, dbt in a BashOperator, retries=3 on every task, and catchup=True for the 90-day backfill. The skill's six steps overturned five of those - it routed the workload to metadata-driven fan-out off a control table instead of copy-pasted TaskGroups, replaced the sensor fleet with an event trigger, caught that retrying a partial Redshift COPY duplicates rows, split the backfill onto its own throttled entry point with reconciliation, and reordered the run so the load lands in staging and only promotes after the quality gate. Its 'Common Rationalizations' table names the two traps the cold answer walked into verbatim. One snag: SKILL.md points at references/pipeline-orchestration-patterns.md, which lives at the repo root, not beside the skill, so a plain copy of the skill folder silently loses it.
