Scaling experiments with Metaboost bindingsbacked by MetaflowConfig Consider a Metaboost ML project named `demo` that creates and loads data to custom tables (ETL managed by Maestro), and then trains a simple model on this data (ML Pipeline managed by Metaflow). This has been a guiding design principle with Metaflow since its inception.
