ETL Flow
- 1: User pushes ETL code into ETL Code Repo
- 2: Airflow Scheduler trigger DAG (DAG is generated based on metadata)

- 4: ETL executor uses dbt library to submit job to Apache Spark via JDBC interface (e.g. via Thrift Server)

BI Connection
Using MPP Engine
- BI Tool to access Gold Tier data and Platnium Tier data via JDBC interface exposed by a MPP engine
- Why? A MPP Engine provide better interactive SQL query speed than Spark Thrift Server
Using RDBMS
