Hi prefect team, I happen to see you “run prefect on prefect” in one of your job postings, so I am wondering how you run services via prefect? Are tasks/flows supposed to be short living?

Hey @Milton -- "services" that we run with Prefect are just scheduled flows that occur frequently.

That's not really an intended use-case for Prefect so we run that like someone normally would 🙂

I see, just thought you were able to pull that off somehow, which would be really fascinating 😀
