Here is my personal opinion of some Pros and Cons for the types of jobs that are in the fuzzy area of overlapping functionality.

Jenkins gui and interface handles lots of standalone jobs more nicely.

Jenkins has much better support for parameterised jobs that can be kicked off manually.

Airflow can handle dependencies between jobs in a much better way. Nicely defining and visualising dags of job really is the killer feature.

Browsing task/job logs is nicer in Airflow IMO.

Airflow scheduler is flaky - hopefully better in 2.0.

Airflow has much more “magic” than Jenkins this is often infuriating.

All that said, my preference is to move jobs to Airflow. Getting a nice gui for manually triggered jobs in airflow is/was the only large missing piece for me.

I was in disbelief when I first realised that no-one in the UK knows what a lodgement is.

- changing dimensions - handling changing types e.g. A column of strings becoming a compound of floats - efficiently handling appends - efficiently handling corrections of previous data - how to cleanup, remove old versions

The version store storage engine in Arctic provides fast and efficient versioning for numeric data. The code is quite readable so it might be worth having a look at its implementation too.

Gui's are often preferred for the speed at which new hires can use them. In environments with high turnover this is important. You can have the best of both worlds with a GUI that has good shortcuts and clever cursor placement. I agree though that most gui implementations have not put enough effort into this.

Describing this trend as "mostly flat with a slight upward bend." is very misleading.

Also generally with ski slopes the quoted gradient is some tiny portion of the run. Top to bottom the actual gradient is much less.

E.g. "this ski slope has a gradient of 90%!!!"

These children are often particularly socially awkward. I'm not an expert but I think that this group of children may be more predisposed to mental illness.
