Open workflows have simplified data ingestion and curation but still need better UI and scheduler resilience
I think there could be improvements or enhancements in Apache Airflow in terms of having a better UI experience. The UX can be done a bit better. The web interface of Apache Airflow has helped me in tracking and troubleshooting since I'm operational and part of the operational side of Apache Airflow. Mostly, I go into the logs of the web server and scheduler to check what's happening in the back-end instead of looking at the front-end. The UI can give errors related to pipelines, but it can be more improved if we get errors related to import errors and scheduling errors. These areas can be improved. Other than a better UI experience, I would want to see improvements in the scheduler. Sometimes, for user-made mistakes, the scheduler goes down. I experienced this issue and I'm not sure whether it got fixed right now or not. If a user is building a data pipeline in Apache Airflow and a user makes a mistake in their code, that makes the scheduler go down and eventually Apache Airflow goes down. That is not what is expected. If that gets fixed, then it can do wonders.
