Google offers their most recent infrastructure as a service in GCP, e.g. Cloud Dataflow, and it hasn't exactly taken the world by storm. Industry standards matter, even if they are inferior implementations; the differential is just not that big.

Dataflow is based on oss Apache airflow. I don’t know how well it’s doing in the wild but every IT admin I’ve worked with are super excited to use it.
Airflow and Dataflow are not related.

Google open sourced dataflow as Beam - https://beam.apache.org

Dataflow it's self isn't open source. Beam is not open source Dataflow, however you can use the Beam SDK with Dataflow as a runner.
Ah, apologies, my bad.
