In addition to Spark, we want to support last-mile data processing in Python, addressing use cases such as feature transformations, batch inference, and training. Occasionally, these use cases involve terabytes of data, so we have to pay attention to performance. Internally, we use a production workflow orchestrator called Maestro.

Some of the optimizations are prerequisites for a high-performance data warehouse. Sometimes Data Engineers write downstream ETLs on ingested data to optimize the data/metadata layouts to make other ETL processes cheaper and faster. Both automatic (event-driven) as well as manual (ad-hoc) optimization.
