Summary
This chapter covered many concepts of workflow management and job control. We started by creating a simple data workflow with a single Python script. We then added more steps into the workflow and broke the workflow down into a multi-stage workflow. Next, we used Bash to compose as well as automate workflows. Lastly, we studied DAGs and implemented them using the open-source tool Airflow.
With the concepts and techniques that you have learned in this chapter, you will be able to tackle more sophisticated problems in the areas of AI and data science. Moreover, you will continue to learn and build experience on top of what you have gained from this chapter.
In the next chapter, you will learn about data solutions from public cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services. The concepts of implementing data operations and creating a data pipeline will be our building blocks for the next chapter. We will continue to build more sophisticated data storage solutions for use in AI...
