DAGks
DAGks is an open-source software tool designed to facilitate the development, deployment, and management of distributed applications using directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). The framework is built on Kubernetes, leveraging its container orchestration capabilities to automate workflows and data processing pipelines. By abstracting complex infrastructure management, DAGks enables developers to define workflows as DAGs, where nodes represent tasks and edges represent dependencies between them.
The tool is particularly useful for data engineering, machine learning pipelines, and other workflow-heavy applications where
Key features of DAGks include:
- **Workflow Definition**: Users define workflows using a declarative DAG model, which can be written in YAML
- **Kubernetes Integration**: Tasks are executed as Kubernetes pods, enabling seamless scaling and resource management.
- **Dynamic Execution**: Workflows can adapt to changing conditions, such as adjusting parallelism based on workload.
- **Monitoring and Logging**: Built-in observability tools provide visibility into workflow execution, including task status, logs, and
- **Extensibility**: The framework supports custom operators and plugins, allowing integration with proprietary or specialized tools.
