About

The vendor describes Astro as a platform for moving data and agentic workflows from prototype to production. It is powered by Apache Airflow and augmented with AI. Astro includes Otto, an agent built for Apache Airflow that writes DAGs, investigates failures, and plans upgrades. Otto operates in a loop of acting, reasoning, and learning, using Airflow knowledge and live memory of run history, corrections, and connection configurations. Astro allows users to run Airflow locally with the Astro CLI or develop in the browser with Astro IDE. It supports deployments as code, managing Airflow infrastructure via Git, CLI, API, or Terraform. The platform offers native data observability for monitoring health, data quality, and SLAs, with task-level lineage and AI-powered root cause analysis. Astro also provides zero-downtime Airflow upgrades and rollbacks to any deploy from the last 90 days. The Astro Engine includes a hardened runtime, an agent-based executor, and an optimization layer for managing health and resources across deployments on any major cloud.
