Superset + Airflow

Beget VPS with a pre-installed Superset and Airflow is a ready-to-use solution for analysts that helps to store, process and visualize data, as well as automate these processes.

The build includes several useful tools for data analytics:

• Superset – big data oriented open source research and visualization software.
• Airflow – open source software for creating, executing, monitoring, and orchestrating data operations’ flows.
• Clickhouse – an DBMS specifically designed for OLAP and data aggregation.

Due to the modern hardware and flexible server characteristics configurator, it is possible to process any amount of data with Superset and Airflow without installation and setup costs.

Superset and Airflow installation

When installing a server, in addition to the standard parameters you will be asked to specify:

• The domain name by which Superset and Airflow analytics tools will be available. You can either choose your own domain or register a new one. Also, you can use a free .beget.app domain. A free SSL certificate will be installed on it.
• Password for the root user. This password will be used to access Superset, Airflow and Clickhouse.

Once the virtual server is created, we will automatically prepare the web analytics tools for the first launch. It usually takes up to 5 minutes. You will be notified when the deployment is complete.
