+# crate-airflow-tutorial
+Orchestration Project - Astronomer/Airflow tutorials
+
+
+## About
+
+This repository contains a few examples of Apache Airflow DAGs for automating recurrent
+queries. All DAGs run on Astronomer infrastructure installed on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS.
+
+In the [dags](dags) directory you can find a subset of our DAG examples.
+Each DAG is accompanied by a tutorial:
+
+* [data_retention_delete_dag.py](dags/data_retention_delete_dag.py) ([tutorial](https://community.crate.io/t/cratedb-and-apache-airflow-implementation-of-data-retention-policy/913)): implements a retention policy algorithm that drops expired partitions
+* [data_retention_reallocate_dag.py](dags/data_retention_reallocate_dag.py) ([tutorial](https://community.crate.io/t/cratedb-and-apache-airflow-building-a-hot-cold-storage-data-retention-policy/934)): implements a retention policy algorithm that reallocates expired partitions from hot nodes to cold nodes
+* [data_retention_snapshot_dag.py](dags/data_retention_snapshot_dag.py): implements a retention policy algorithm that snapshots expired partitions to a repository
+
+
+## Testing
+
+```shell
+pip install --editable=.[develop,test]
+poe check
+```
