Apache Airflow DAG Patterns

Production-ready patterns for Apache Airflow including DAG design, operators, sensors, testing, and deployment strategies.

Use this skill when

  • Creating data pipeline orchestration with Airflow
  • Designing DAG structures and dependencies
  • Implementing custom operators and sensors
  • Testing Airflow DAGs locally
  • Setting up Airflow in production
  • Debugging failed DAG runs

Do not use this skill when

  • You only need a simple cron job or shell script
  • Airflow is not part of the tooling stack
  • The task is unrelated to workflow orchestration

Instructions

  • Identify data sources, schedules, and dependencies.
  • Design idempotent tasks with clear ownership and retries.
  • Implement DAGs with observability and alerting hooks.
  • Validate in staging and document operational runbooks.

Refer to resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns, checklists, and templates.

Safety

  • Avoid changing production DAG schedules without approval.
  • Test backfills and retries carefully to prevent data duplication.

Resources

  • resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns, checklists, and templates.
