How to Set Up DBT + Airflow + SQL Server with Docker

In this step-by-step tutorial, you'll learn how to set up a real-world data engineering environment using Docker Compose. We'll integrate DBT (Data Build Tool) for transformations, Apache Airflow for orchestration, and SQL Server as our source database — all containerized and production-ready. What You'll Set Up: ✅ SQL Server with AdventureWorks database ✅ DBT container to build data models ✅ Apache Airflow (Webserver + Scheduler) ✅ PostgreSQL for Airflow metadata ✅ Shared Docker network with volume mounts ✅ End-to-end pipeline verification with dbt run and Airflow UI 🔗 Want the full project setup?
