Apache Airflow is a popular open-source platform for developing, scheduling, and monitoring workflows. Airflow is developed in Python and enables the development of batch-oriented workflows, that are dynamic, extensible and flexible, as they are configured as Python code. Airflow provides a rich interactive web user interface (UI) that helps manage the state of workflow execution. In addition to all of these, Airflow connects to a variety of different technologies, through a very extensive list of integrations, for email, monitoring, logging, deployment, security, and many others. Despite being widely adopted in the industry by big players in Machine Learning and Big Data, Airflow’s adoption by the Bioinformatics community is not as widespread. Airflow is a platform created by the community to programmatically author, schedule and monitor workflows. Airflow can be deployed in many ways, varying from a single process on your laptop to a distributed setup to support very large workflows.
