Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Apache Superset
> YAML, pivoting being done in the frontend, no symmetric aggregates
(one of the maintainers of Lightdash) You touched on some of our most interesting problems here! Would be especially interested to hear about what you liked / didn't like about symmetric aggregates in Looker and how you find dev with YAML. If you have an idea of how you'd like these to look in Lightdash, the team would be really open to making that a reality.
For pivoting in the backend, this is coming! Issue here: https://github.com/lightdash/lightdash/issues/2907

What are the 5 hottest dbt Repositories one should star on GitHub 2022?
What are the 5 hottest dbt Repositories one should star on Github 2022?
dbt is a software framework that sits in the middle of the ELT process. It represents the transformative layer after loading data from an original source. Dbt combines SQL with software engineering principles.
Here are my top5!
- Lightdash (https://github.com/lightdash/lightdash): Lightdash converts dbt models and makes it possible to define and easily visualize additional metrics via a visual interface.
- ⏎ re_data (https://github.com/re-data/re-data): Re-Data is an abstraction layer that helps users monitor dbt projects and their underlying data. For example, you get alerts when a test failed or a data anomaly occurs in a dbt project.
- evidence (https://github.com/evidence-dev/evidence): Evidence is another tool for lightweight BI reporting. With Evidence, you can build simple reports in "medium style" using SQL queries and Markdown.
- Kuwala (https://github.com/kuwala-io/kuwala): With Kuwala, a BI analyst can intuitively build advanced data workflows using a drag-drop interface on top of the modern data stack without coding. Behind the Scenes, the dbt models are generated so that a more experienced engineer can customize the pipelines at any time.
- fal ai (https://github.com/fal-ai/fal): Fal helps to run Python scripts directly from the dbt project. For example, you can load dbt models directly into the Python context which helps to apply Data Science libraries like SKlearn and Prophet in the dbt models.

What are the hottest dbt Repositories you should star on Github 2022? - Here are mine.
Lightdash ( https://github.com/lightdash/lightdash ) Lightdash converts dbt models and makes it possible to define and easily visualize additional metrics via a visual interface. The front end helps to understand and extend the underlying SQL queries. Lightdash also visualizes business metrics and makes them shareable with the data team. It is also possible to integrate all data into another visualization tool.

Launch HN: Metaplane (YC W20) – Datadog for Data
1) An integration with Metabase Cloud is on our roadmap for Q1! We'd love to integrate with Lightdash, but they don't have a public API just yet[1].
2) Several of our customers use us to alert on schema changes in Postgres, specifically so they can get ahead of application database changes that will end up in the warehouse, so you're definitely not alone! Here's a link on how to connect postgres: https://docs.metaplane.dev/docs/postgres
That's an excellent stack and one we kept front and center when building out Metaplane, so definitely let us know if you have any feedback or suggestions here!

what's your experience with Looker ?
I would recommend lightdash which is essentially an open source Looker clone https://github.com/lightdash/lightdash
- a full semantic model based on dbt, dimensions, joins and metrics
- An open source alternative to Looker built using dbt. Made for analysts
dagster
- Experience with Dagster.io?

Dagster tutorials
My recommendation is to continue on with the tutorial, then look at one of the larger example projects especially the ones named “project_”, and you should understand most of it. Of what you don't understand and you're curious about, look into the relevant concept page for the functions in the docs.

The Dagster Master Plan
I found this example that helped me - https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/tree/master/examples/project_fully_featured/project_fully_featured

What are some open-source ML pipeline managers that are easy to use?
I would recommend the following: - https://www.mage.ai/ - https://dagster.io/ - https://www.prefect.io/ - https://metaflow.org/ - https://zenml.io/home

The Why and How of Dagster User Code Deployment Automation
In Helm terms: there are 2 charts, namely the system: dagster/dagster (values.yaml), and the user code: dagster/dagster-user-deployments (values.yaml). Note that you have to set dagster-user-deployments.enabled: true in the dagster/dagster values-yaml to enable this.

Best Orchestration Tool to run dbt projects?
Dagster seemed really cool when I looked into it as an alternative to airflow. I especially like the software defined assets and built-in lineage which I haven't seen in any other tool. However it seems it does not support RBAC which is a pretty big issue if you want a self-service type of architecture, see https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/issues/2219. It does seem like it's available in their hosted version, but I wanted to run it myself on k8s.

What's the best thing/library you learned this year ?
One that I haven't seen on here yet: dagster
- Anyone have an example of a project where a handful of the more popular Python tools are used? (E.g. airbyte, airflow, dbt, and pandas)
- Can we take a moment to appreciate how much of dataengineering is open source?
What are some alternatives?
Metabase - The simplest, fastest way to get business intelligence and analytics to everyone in your company :yum:
Prefect - The easiest way to build, run, and monitor data pipelines at scale.
superset - Apache Superset is a Data Visualization and Data Exploration Platform
Airflow - Apache Airflow - A platform to programmatically author, schedule, and monitor workflows
Rakam - 📈 Collect customer event data from your apps. (Note that this project only includes the API collector, not the visualization platform)
Mage - 🧙 The modern replacement for Airflow. Mage is an open-source data pipeline tool for transforming and integrating data. https://github.com/mage-ai/mage-ai
trino_data_mesh - Proof of concept on how to gain insights with Trino across different databases from a distributed data mesh
airbyte - The leading data integration platform for ETL / ELT data pipelines from APIs, databases & files to data warehouses, data lakes & data lakehouses. Both self-hosted and Cloud-hosted.
