Double-entry bookkeeping was Europe's first data quality revolution. Medieval merchants created it to track complex trade and accidentally changed society. Today's data quality problems might be blocking the next big transformation. History rhymes, (etc etc).

Otto's data teams were stuck. Some drowning in endless Argo YAML configurations, others testing directly in production. When your data platform fights against good practices, your teams waste time on operational overhead instead of building value.

🚀 Want to preview the brand new `dg` cli, and a framework for building and working with YAML DSLs built on top of Dagster called "Components"? You can find a link to demo videos and a GitHub discussion in the thread!

We understand that your data platform is highly contextual, and you need a tool to accommodate this. Components provide a low-code YAML interface for your users, backed by tools that support software engineering best practices and give platform teams complete control.

I'm always really enjoying these presentations, sharing all the code and showcasing what's possible today. Amazing integrating BI tools such as Power BI, Looker, Tableau, or Sigma. I believe that's the first time an open-source orchestrator is fully end-to-end. 📺
