I would be interested in knowing about a feature analysis of Prefect vs Airflow.

Hey @John Marx, have you seen this blog yet? A bit old but a lot would still stand. From my conversation with folks here, Prefect allows them to have orchestration and logic side by side whereas Airflow pushes them towards monorepos.
Unfortunately, we don’t have any migration tools.

Is there any specific feature you want to ask about?

From my perspective it's not really about features, but about the operational story. Airflow hasn't been a great time to administer and configure, whereas Prefect lets me plug right into my existing Kubernetes patterns (for example)

To be fair, Airflow has Kubernetes operators now etc etc

@Wilson Bilkovich I would be keen to read more on the K8s support capabilities. All of our applications are in Kubernetes.

Based on what I have already seen, I will seek to do a POC. Thank you both for the prompt reply.
