-- By default, the notebook creates the objects in the public schema.
-- USE DATABASE <database name>;
-- USE SCHEMA <schema name>;

-- 1. Set the default configurations.
--    Creates a root task ("task_a"), and sets the default configurations
--    used throughout the task graph.
--    Configurations include:
--    * Each task runs after one minute, with a 60-second timeout.
--    * If a task fails, retry it twice. if it fails twice,
--      the entire task graph is considered as failed.
--    * If the task graph fails consecutively three times, suspend the task.
--    * Other environment values are set.
