Blog post from Kestra
Kestra's blog post explores the integration of Kestra with Google Cloud Platform (GCP), focusing on automating data workflows and enhancing BigQuery operations. It highlights Kestra's ability to streamline processes like creating and managing datasets, running queries, and importing/exporting tables, using its suite of plugins for GCP services such as Google Cloud Storage and VertexAI. The post illustrates how Kestra facilitates data modeling and transformation through automated workflows, driven by triggers based on schedules or external events, like new data in a BigQuery table or files in a GCS bucket. It also emphasizes Kestra's features for data lineage tracking, showcasing Gantt charts and task dependencies to provide insights into the data processing pipeline. Additionally, Kestra supports the integration of external data sources and custom scripts, enabling robust, event-driven orchestration that can adapt to real-time data changes, and encourages community engagement for further development and feedback.
