I’ve been using Apache Airflow for some time and found some workarounds for it; this post is a list of these possibilities:

N8N:

n8n (pronounced n-eight-n) helps you to connect any app with an API with any other, and manipulate its data with little or no code.

Customizable: highly flexible workflows and the option to build custom nodes.

Convenient: use the Desktop app or npm to try out n8n, or the Cloud hosting option if you want us to handle the infrastructure.

Privacy-focused: self-host n8n for privacy and security.

This web solution for creating and scheduling workflows can be an alternative; it makes HTTP requests to other solutions.

Astronomer:

Astro is a managed software service that offers a next-generation experience for modern data teams running Apache Airflow, the open source industry standard for data orchestration.
