[~rrbarbosa], I spoke with [~sanand], and it sounds like all you need to do is
set autocommit=True. He is running VACUUM in his DAGs with Postgres.

> Key: AIRFLOW-139
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-139
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: Airflow 1.7.0
> Reporter: Rafael
>
> Dear Airflow Maintainers,
> h1. Environment
> * Airflow version: *v1.7.0*
> * Airflow components: *PostgresOperator*
> * Python Version: *Python 3.5.1*
> * Operating System: *15.4.0 Darwin*
> h1. Description of Issue
> I am trying to execute a `VACUUM` command as part of DAG with the
> `PostgresOperator`, which fails with the following error:
> {quote}

> psycopg2.InternalError: VACUUM cannot run inside a transaction block
> {quote}
> I could create a small python script that performs the operation, as
> explained in [this stackoverflow
> entry](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1017463/postgresql-how-to-run-vacuum-from-code-outside-transaction-block).
> However, I would like to know first if the `VACUUM` command should be
> supported by the `PostgresOperator`.
> h1. Reproducing the Issue
> The operator can be declared as follows:
> {quote}
> conn = ('postgres_default')
> t4 = PostgresOperator(
> task_id='vacuum',
> postgres_conn_id=conn,
> sql=("VACUUM public.table"),
> dag=dag
> )
> {quote}
