+# Airlift Federation Tutorial: Federating Execution Across Airflow Instances
+
+At this point, we should be [observing our DAGs within Dagster](/integrations/airlift/federation-tutorial/observe), and now we have cross-instance lineage for our DAGs. Now, we'll federate the execution of our DAGs across both Airflow instances by using Dagster's Declarative Automation system.
+
+## Making `customer_metrics` executable.
+
+The `load_airflow_dag_asset_specs` function creates asset representations (called `AssetSpec`) of Airflow DAGs, but these assets are not executable. We need to define an execution function in Dagster in order to make them executable.
+
+In order to federate execution of `customer_metrics`, we first need to make it executable within Dagster. We can do this by using the `@multi_asset` decorator to define how the `customer_metrics` asset should be executed. We'll use the `AirflowInstance` defined earlier to trigger a run of the `customer_metrics` DAG. We then wait for the run to complete, and if it is successful, we'll successfully materialize the asset. If the run fails, we'll raise an exception.
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/snippets/federated_execution.py startafter=start_multi_asset endbefore=end_multi_asset
+@multi_asset(specs=[customer_metrics_dag_asset])
+def run_customer_metrics() -> MaterializeResult:
+    run_id = metrics_airflow_instance.trigger_dag("customer_metrics")
+    metrics_airflow_instance.wait_for_run_completion("customer_metrics", run_id)
+    if metrics_airflow_instance.get_run_state("customer_metrics", run_id) == "success":
+        return MaterializeResult(asset_key=customer_metrics_dag_asset.key)
+    else:
+        raise Exception("Dag run failed.")
+```
+
+Now, we'll replace the `customer_metrics_dag_asset` in our `Definitions` object with the `run_customer_metrics` function:
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/snippets/federated_execution.py startafter=start_multi_asset_defs endbefore=end_multi_asset_defs
+defs = Definitions(
+    assets=[load_customers_dag_asset, run_customer_metrics],
+    sensors=[warehouse_sensor, metrics_sensor],
+)
+```
+
+We should be able to go to the Dagster UI and see that the `customer_metrics` asset can now be materialized.
+
+## Federating execution
+
+Ultimately, we would like to kick off a run of `customer_metrics` whenever `load_customers` completes successfully. We're already retrieving a materialization when `load_customers` completes, so we can use this to trigger a run of `customer_metrics` by using Declarative Automation. First, we'll add an `AutomationCondition.eager()` to our `customer_metrics_dag_asset`. This will tell Dagster to run the `run_customer_metrics` function whenever the `load_customers` asset is materialized.
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/snippets/federated_execution.py startafter=start_eager endbefore=end_eager
+from dagster import AutomationCondition
+
+customer_metrics_dag_asset = replace_attributes(
+    customer_metrics_dag_asset,
+    automation_condition=AutomationCondition.eager(),
+)
+```
+
+Now, we can set up Declarative Automation by adding an `AutomationConditionSensorDefinition`.
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/snippets/federated_execution.py startafter=start_automation_sensor endbefore=end_automation_sensor
+automation_sensor = AutomationConditionSensorDefinition(
+    name="automation_sensor",
+    target="*",
+    default_status=DefaultSensorStatus.RUNNING,
+    minimum_interval_seconds=1,
+)
+```
+
+We'll add this sensor to our `Definitions` object.
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/snippets/federated_execution.py startafter=start_complete_defs endbefore=end_complete_defs
+defs = Definitions(
+    assets=[load_customers_dag_asset, run_customer_metrics],
+    sensors=[warehouse_sensor, metrics_sensor, automation_sensor],
+)
+```
+
+Now the `run_customer_metrics` function will be executed whenever the `load_customers` asset is materialized. Let's test this out by triggering a run of the `load_customers` DAG in Airflow. When the run completes, we should see a materialization of the `customer_metrics` asset kick off in the Dagster UI, and eventually a run of the `customer_metrics` DAG in the metrics Airflow instance.
+
+## Complete code
+
+When all the above steps are complete, your code should look something like this.
+
+```python file=../../airlift-federation-tutorial/airlift_federation_tutorial/dagster_defs/stages/executable_and_da.py

+
+## Conclusion
+
+That concludes the tutorial! We've federated the execution of our DAGs across two Airflow instances using Dagster's Declarative Automation system. We've also set up cross-instance lineage for our DAGs, and can now observe the lineage and execution of our DAGs in the Dagster UI.
