Dagster
AI-native DataOps platform·dagster.io
Dagster is a data orchestration platform that helps engineers develop, produce, and observe data assets with reliability and scalability. It is asset-centric rather than task-centric, modeling data assets such as tables, datasets, machine learning models, and reports as Python functions. The platform provides integrated lineage, observability, data quality checks, and a built-in data catalog across pipelines built with tools like dbt, Snowflake, Spark, and Databricks. Dagster+ is the managed cloud offering that adds enterprise features such as branch deployments, hybrid deployment, role-based access control, and AI-assisted operations.
