By integrating GitHub Actions into your dbt and Dremio workflows, you’ve unlocked a powerful, automated CI/CD pipeline for managing and version-controlling your semantic layer.

By embracing the right orchestration tools, you can automate your data workflows, save time, reduce errors, and scale your data platform with ease. So, whether you're managing daily queries or orchestrating complex data pipelines, Airflow combined with Dremio is the way forward for efficient and reliable orchestration.

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to set up Dremio, promote and format a dataset, create a complex query, and then use an Aggregate Reflection to optimize that query for better performance. With this approach, you can easily scale your data analytics workload while keeping query times low.

With Dremio and Apache Iceberg, managing partitioning and optimizing queries becomes far simpler and more effective. By leveraging Reflections, Incremental Reflections, and Live Reflections, you can maintain fresh data, reduce the complexity of partitioning strategies, and optimize for different query plans without sacrificing performance. Using Dremio’s flexible approach, you can balance keeping raw tables simple and ensuring that frequently run queries are fully optimized.
