Case Study: Black Wealth Data Center scales racial wealth data impact with Astronomer, Inc.'s Astro

How Black Wealth Data Center Scaled Their Impact with Astro

The Black Wealth Data Center, founded to advance racial wealth equity through actionable data, needed a scalable way to manage growing datasets and workflows. Early on, the team relied on data scientists to manually handle data processing, but as their data volume increased, they needed a more sustainable solution to run Airflow and reduce the burden of cluster maintenance.

Astronomer, Inc. provided Astro and hands-on migration support, helping the Black Wealth Data Center upgrade its Airflow environment and streamline workflow management. With Astronomer, the team gained a more manageable setup, integrated dbt via Cosmos, and created a single view of their pipelines, improving data quality and enabling data scientists to build and manage pipelines independently while scaling efficiently.
