When to Move from Dagster OSS to Dagster+

Dagster OSS is an open-source platform designed for building data products with asset-based orchestration, offering control and customization that suits early-stage teams. As teams grow and operational demands increase, the burden of managing infrastructure, access control, and environment isolation can divert focus from development to maintenance. Dagster+ emerges as a solution for scaling, maintaining the same asset model and Python APIs of Dagster OSS while providing managed infrastructure, role-based access control, and advanced observability features. It simplifies the complexities of running multiple environments and ensures reliability with a 99.9% uptime SLA and automated updates. This allows data teams to concentrate on building data products rather than managing the underlying systems, making it a compelling choice for organizations experiencing growth and requiring robust operational support.
