Let’s see who Airflow +users are, how they play with it and what they miss. In this survey we got **308** responses. +The original form can be found here: +https://forms.gle/XAzR1pQBZiftvPQM7 + +# Overview of the user + +**What best describes your current occupation?** + +| |No.| % | +|-------------------------|---|------| +|Data Engineer |194|62.99%| +|Developer | 34|11.04%| +|Architect | 23|7.47% | +|Data Scientist | 19|6.17% | +|Data Analyst | 13|4.22% | +|DevOps | 13|4.22% | +|IT Administrator | 2|0.65% | +|Machine Learning Engineer| 2|0.65% | +|Manager | 2|0.65% | +|Operations | 2|0.65% | +|Chief Data Officer | 1|0.32% | +|Engineering Manager | 1|0.32% | +|Intern | 1|0.32% | +|Product owner | 1|0.32% | +|Quant | 1|0.32% | + + +**In your day to day job, what do you use Airflow for?** + +| |No.| % | +|------------------------------------------------------|---|------| +|Data processing (ETL) |298|96.75%| +|Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Pipelines| 90|29.22%| +|Automating DevOps operations | 64|20.78%| + +According to the survey most of Airflow users are the “data” people. Moreover, +28.57% uses Airflow to both ETL and ML pipelines meaning that those two fields +are somehow connected. Only 5 people use Airflow for DevOps operations only, +this suggests that if Airflow is used by someone then he or she will also try it +for DevOps tasks. Review comment: Ah ok I understand what you meant: so "if you use it for DevOps, you don't use it only for DevOps". But there are still 308-64 people that don't care about DevOps so to speak ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
