What's Dagster+?

Dagster+ is a managed orchestration platform built on top of Dagster's open source engine.

Dagster+ is built to be the most performant, reliable, and cost effective way for data engineering teams to run Dagster in production. Dagster+ is also great for students, researchers, or individuals who want to explore Dagster with minimal overhead.

Dagster+ comes in two flavors: a fully Serverless offering and a Hybrid offering. In both cases, Dagster+ does the hard work of managing your data orchestration control plane. Compared to a Dagster open source deployment, Dagster+ manages:

  • Dagster's web UI at https://dagster.plus
  • Metadata stores for data cataloging and cost insights
  • Backend services for orchestration, alerting, and more

Dagster+ Serverless is fully managed and your Dagster code executes in our environment. In Dagster+ Hybrid, you run an execution environment that connects to the Dagster+ control plane.

In addition to managed infrastructure, Dagster+ also adds core capabilities on top of Dagster open source to enable teams building data platforms:

  • Insights, a powerful tool for identifying trends in your data platform overtime, optimizing cost, and answering questions like "Why does it feel like our pipelines are taking longer this month?".
  • Alerts to a variety of services like Slack, PagerDuty, and email to notify your team of failed runs, data quality issues, and violated SLAs.
  • Authentication, Role Based Access Control, and Audit Logs which help teams implement data mesh strategies while remaining compliant.
  • Data Catalog, a powerful search-first experience that builds off of Dagster's best-in-class lineage graph to include searching for assets, metadata, column lineage, and more.
  • Branch Deployments
