@Marvin Can I run Prefect on Google Colab?

Based on the information available, there is no direct mention of running Prefect on Google Colab in the Prefect documentation. However, since Google Colab provides an environment very similar to running Python on a Linux system, and Prefect can be installed via
pip
, it should technically be possible to run Prefect on Google Colab. You'd likely start by installing Prefect in a Colab notebook with something like:
Copy code
python
!pip install prefect
And then you could proceed to import Prefect, define your flows and tasks, and run them as you would in any other Python environment. Remember though, the execution environment in Colab is ephemeral and resetting the environment or exceeding usage limits might disrupt long running flows.
