dbt - Production Deployment

ACreate three BashOperator tasks and chain them with '>>' operator

BCreate one BashOperator with all commands joined by '&&'

CUse PythonOperator to run dbt commands in one function

DSchedule each dbt command as separate DAGs

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand sequential task execution in Airflow
Chaining tasks with '>>' ensures order and that next runs only if previous succeeds.
Step 2: Evaluate options
Three BashOperators chained with '>>' is clear, maintainable, and uses Airflow's dependency management.
Final Answer:
Create three BashOperator tasks and chain them with '>>' operator -> Option A
Quick Check:
Use task chaining for sequential dependent runs [OK]

Quick Trick: Chain tasks with '>>' for sequential execution [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Joining commands in one BashOperator loses Airflow visibility
Using PythonOperator unnecessarily complicates simple shell commands
Scheduling separate DAGs breaks sequence control
