ploomber VS dagster

- One-click sharing powered by Ploomber Cloud: https://ploomber.io

Documentation: https://jupysql.ploomber.io

Note that JupySQL is a fork of ipython-sql; which is no longer actively developed. Catherine, ipython-sql's creator, was kind enough to pass the project to us (check out ipython-sql's README).

We'd love to learn what you think and what features we can ship for JupySQL to be the best SQL client! Please let us know in the comments!

For those who don't know, Jupyter has a bash kernel: https://github.com/takluyver/bash_kernel

And you can run Jupyter notebooks from the CLI with Ploomber: https://github.com/ploomber/ploomber

Develop notebook-based pipelines

Fair point. MLflow has a lot of features to cover the end-to-end dev cycle. This SQLite tracker only covers the experiment tracking part.

We have another project to cover the orchestration/pipelines aspect: https://github.com/ploomber/ploomber and we have plans to work on the rest of features. For now, we're focusing on those two.

I recommend taking a look at the ploomber open source. It helps you structure your code and parameterize it in a way that's easier to maintain and test. Our blog has lots of resources about it from testing your code to building a data science platform on AWS.

Developing end-to-end data science infrastructure can get complex. For example, many of us might have struggled to try to integrate AWS services and deal with configuration, permissions, etc. At Ploomber, we’ve worked with many companies in a wide range of industries, such as energy, entertainment, computational chemistry, and genomics, so we are constantly looking for simple solutions to get them started with Data Science in the cloud.

If you like working locally with notebooks, you can run via the free tier of ploomber, that'll allow you to get the Ram/Compute you need for the bigger models as part of the free tier. Also, it has the historical executions so you don't need to remember what you executed an hour later!

It really depends on your use cases, I've seen a lot of those tools that lock you into a certain syntax, framework or weird language (for instance Groovy). If you'd like to use core python or Jupyter notebooks I'd recommend Ploomber, the community support is really strong, there's an emphasis on observability and you can deploy it on any executor like Slurm, AWS Batch or Airflow. In addition, there's a free managed compute (cloud edition) where you can run certain bioinformatics flows like Alphafold or Cripresso2

That's what we do for lineage with https://ploomber.io/

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.

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

I would recommend the following: - https://www.mage.ai/ - https://dagster.io/ - https://www.prefect.io/ - https://metaflow.org/ - https://zenml.io/home

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.

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.
