S8 Bonus: The Data Asset Revolution: Moving Beyond Imperative Task Pipelines to Declarative Orchestration with Pete Hunt, Co-Founder of React & CEO of Dagster Labs
Sep 13, 2023 · Season 8 · 33 min
Data pipelines, done right
Pete Hunt grew up in NE Massachusetts, which he mentions was culturally New Hampshire. He wasn't into Hockey, but did a lot of swimming, in particular the 200m butterfly. He has a 2 year old daughter, and loves to play guitar in his cover band.
Pete was one of the founding team members of React, and his friend and colleague, Nick, was one of the creators of GraphQL. Post Facebook, they wanted to figure out what was next, and wanted to build something impactful. After interviewing some folks, he realized that managing data and data pipelines was a challenge that needed to be solved.
This is the creation story of Dagster.
