What you'll learn

Production data pipelines depend on databases, APIs, cloud storage, and other services that have their own authentication, configuration, and failure modes.

In this course, Integrate Apache Airflow 3 with External Systems, you'll gain the ability to build maintainable Airflow workflows that orchestrate data across external services.

First, you'll explore Airflow's integration model by using provider packages, connections, operators, and hooks to connect to Globoticket systems.

Next, you'll build an end-to-end Globoticket event publishing pipeline that retrieves event updates from a REST API, performs database operations, and publishes a partner feed through Airflow's object storage interface.

Finally, you'll learn how to keep credentials and endpoints outside Dag code, diagnose common integration failures, and update external configuration without rewriting the workflow.

When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of Apache Airflow external integrations needed to build pipelines that connect reliably to real systems and remain maintainable as those systems change.
