Elementl rethought this with what it calls a data asset (which could be a table in a data warehouse or a file sitting in a data lake) at its core. So instead of thinking about tasks as the core abstraction, Elementl (and Dagster) focus on the data assets. \u201cBy centering this notion of an asset at the core of our system, we get a ledger of every data asset in the organization and every state transition that it\u2019s gone through, along with all the metadata associated with it. That\u2019s a mental model that developers love,\u201d said Hunt.<\/p>\n
