## Frameworks





#### Apache Airflow - [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow/)

Apache Airflow (or simply Airflow) is a platform to programmatically author, schedule, and monitor workflows.



Use Airflow to author workflows as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of tasks. The Airflow scheduler executes your tasks on an array of workers while following the specified dependencies. Rich command line utilities make performing complex surgeries on DAGs a snap. The rich user interface makes it easy to visualize pipelines running in production, monitor progress, and troubleshoot issues when needed.

#### Alembic - [pypi](https://pypi.org/project/alembic/)

Alembic is a database migrations tool written by the author of  [SQLAlchemy](http://www.sqlalchemy.org/). A migrations tool offers the following functionality:



 1. Can emit ALTER statements to a database in order to change the structure of tables and other constructs

 2. Provides a system whereby “migration scripts” may be constructed; each script indicates a particular series of steps that can “upgrade” a target database to a new version, and optionally a series of steps that can “downgrade” similarly, doing the same steps in reverse.

 3. Allows the scripts to execute in some sequential manner.
