Agentic & Autonomous Data Orchestration

LyftData’s agentic framework transforms static pipelines into self-monitoring, self-healing systems that sense context, respond dynamically, and optimize their own performance.

Problem

Traditional orchestration frameworks are reactive. When a schema changes, a volume spike hits, or a downstream system fails, engineers must intervene manually. These static DAGs can’t adapt, causing downtime, lost data, and constant firefighting.

LyftData Solution

  • Self-monitoring jobs: workers detect errors and auto-retry using configurable health metrics and thresholds.
  • Adaptive routing (experimental): jobs re-route data dynamically based on policy logic or AI model feedback.
  • Telemetry feedback loop: performance metrics feed back into orchestration logic for continuous optimization.
  • Server insights dashboard: real-time visualization of health states, retry events, and adaptive reroutes.

These features form the foundation of LyftData’s agentic layer — a system that learns from its own telemetry to maintain uptime and efficiency automatically.

Outcome

Pipelines evolve from static flows into living systems that self-correct and optimize. Teams spend less time debugging and more time building data products, while the platform manages the rest.

Example: Self-monitoring job with adaptive routing

A conceptual YAML configuration showing auto-retries, adaptive rerouting, and feedback-driven tuning:

YAML
job:
  name: adaptive-ingest
  monitoring:
    health_metrics:
      - latency_ms < 5000
      - error_rate < 0.01
    retry_policy:
      attempts: 3
      backoff: exponential
  source:
    type: kafka
    topic: transactions
  actions:
    - parse: json
    - enrich: { add_field: timestamp, value: "{{ now() }}" }
    - route:
        - when: load_avg > 0.8
          to: low_priority_sink
        - else: high_priority_sink
  destinations:
    - name: high_priority_sink
      type: snowflake
      table: live_transactions
    - name: low_priority_sink
      type: s3
      bucket: deferred-transactions
  feedback_loop:
    enabled: true
    metrics:
      - latency_ms
      - throughput
      - error_rate
    adjust:
      - parameter: batch_size
        rule: increase_when latency_ms < 1000

What this does: monitors job latency and error rate, retries automatically, reroutes traffic when system load rises, and tunes batch size dynamically using feedback from the Worker telemetry stream.
