Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) now supports the Airflow REST API along with web server auto scaling, allowing customers to programmatically monitor and manage their Apache Airflow environments at scale.
Amazon MWAA is a managed orchestration service for Apache Airflow that makes it easier to set up and operate end-to-end data pipelines in the cloud. With Airflow REST API support, customers can now monitor workflows, trigger new executions, manage connections, and perform other administration tasks with ease via scalable API calls. Web server auto scaling enables MWAA to automatically scale out the Airflow web servers to handle increased demand, whether from REST API requests, Command Line Interface (CLI) usage, or more concurrent Airflow User Interface (UI) users.
You can launch or upgrade an Apache Airflow environment to include web server auto scaling on Amazon MWAA with just a few clicks in the AWS Management Console in all currently supported Amazon MWAA regions.
