Альтернативы Apache Airflow 2026
Apache Airflow — de-facto orchestrator для data pipelines (Airbnb origin 2014). 50k+ production deployments. Python-first DAGs, massive ecosystem. Cons: operational overhead, DAG-centric (не reactive). 2026 альтернативы: Prefect (modern Python, dynamic flows), Dagster (asset-based, typed), Temporal (code-first, durable execution), Mage (code + notebooks), Kestra (YAML-declarative), Argo Workflows (K8s-native).

Часто задаваемые вопросы
Airflow overhead?
Requires: metadata DB (Postgres), scheduler, webserver, 1+ workers. Minimum ~2 GB RAM. Астрономер / MWAA managed $150-500+/мес.
Prefect Cloud vs OSS?
OSS (Prefect 2.0): self-host, free. Cloud: $0 free tier (5k runs/мес), $50+ Pro. Modern API, dynamic flows без static DAGs.
Dagster different?
Asset-based (materialization output matters, not task). Type-safe (Pydantic). Observability UI лучше Airflow. Learning curve steep.
Monitor pipeline endpoint?
