Sponsored by: Astronomer | Unlocking the Future of Data Orchestration: Introducing Apache Airflow® 3

Airflow 3 is here, bringing a new era of flexibility, scalability, and security to data orchestration. This release makes building, running, and managing data pipelines easier than ever. In this session, we will cover the key benefits of Airflow 3, including: (1) Ease of Use: Airflow 3 rethinks the user experience—from an intuitive, upgraded UI to DAG Versioning and scheduler-integrated backfills that let teams manage pipelines more effectively than ever before (2) Stronger Security: By decoupling task execution from direct database connections, Airflow 3 enforces task isolation and minimal-privilege access. This meets stringent compliance standards while reducing the risk of unauthorized data exposure. (3) Ultimate Flexibility: Run tasks anywhere, anytime with remote execution and event-driven scheduling. Airflow 3 is designed for global, heterogeneous modern data environments with an architecture that facilitates edge and hybrid-cloud to GPU-based deployments.
