Providers
Fluid Forge uses one contract format across local and provider-backed execution targets.
Docs baseline
- CLI release covered by the primary docs:
0.7.9 - Current scaffolded contract examples:
fluidVersion: 0.7.2
Some deep-dive provider pages still preserve older 0.7.1 snippets for backward-compatibility context. Those examples should not be read as “current version” guidance.
Provider overview
| Provider | Plan / Apply | Scheduling docs stance | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| GCP | Yes | Prefer fluid generate schedule | Production |
| AWS | Yes | Prefer fluid generate schedule | Production |
| Snowflake | Yes | Prefer fluid generate schedule | Production |
| Local | Yes | Local-first onboarding | Production |
Compatibility note: fluid generate-airflow still exists, but the primary docs path is fluid generate schedule --scheduler airflow.
Quick start by provider
GCP
gcloud auth application-default login
gcloud config set project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider gcp --yes
AWS
aws configure
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider aws --yes
Snowflake
export SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT=your_account
export SNOWFLAKE_USER=your_user
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider snowflake --yes
Local
fluid init my-project --quickstart
cd my-project
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --yes
Standards and catalogs
Beyond the apply-capable providers above, Fluid Forge can export contracts to public data-product standards and publish them to catalogs. Both surfaces live inside existing CLI commands rather than as separate provider pages.
Export formats — fluid generate standard
| Format | What it is | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| OPDS | Open Data Product Specification JSON v1.0 | generate standard |
| ODCS | Open Data Contract Standard v3.1.0 (Bitol.io) | generate standard |
| ODPS | Open Data Product Standard — Bitol variant, input-port lineage | generate standard |
| ODPS-Bitol | ODPS in strict-conformance mode | generate standard |
Shortcut: fluid export-opds contract.fluid.yaml — equivalent to fluid generate standard --format opds.
Publishing — fluid publish
| Catalog | Reference |
|---|---|
| FLUID Command Center | fluid publish |
| Data Mesh Manager / Entropy Data | fluid publish → DMM section |
Notes
- Use provider-specific guides when you need deep target details.
- Use CLI Reference for command syntax.
- Use Getting Started for the local-first workflow.
