Question on airflow... I see I can install it directly in meltano via

meltano add orchestrator airflow

.. is there a benefit to me doing a fullblown installation of airflow and wiring it up to this meltanos DAGs ? I have never before used airflow.. so I really appreciate this getting started way of working.. just curious what I would be missing from setting up airflow myself and connecting meltano

If you’re not using Airflow yet, having Meltano install it and handle its configuration is the way to go. You still get full-blown Airflow, and can drop any custom dags in the

orchestrate/dags

directory. If you’re already using Airflow, you can also take the Meltano DAG and add it to your existing instance (if you make sure Meltano is installed in the Airflow environment), but then you won’t benefit from Meltano making configuration and deployment consistent across components

never used it yet, soooo I will stick to the meltano managed version for now then! thanks Douwe
