Hi everyone,

As I've submitted BIGTOP-4360 [1], I'd like to propose incorporating
Apache Airflow [2] into our stack,
because we don't have any job scheduler/workflow orchestrator since
we've dropped Oozie from 3.3.0.

Rationales in my mind are as follows:

* As Astronomer and major cloud vendors provide the managed service of
Airflow [3][4][5][6],
  it is the de-facto standard of open-source workflow orchestrator.

* Airflow community is very active [7], so we don't need to be worried
about its stagnation
  for several years at least.

* I'm also an Airflow committer, so I can be responsible for
maintaining it as a Bigtop component.

Any thoughts or comments?
