Q: Can the same workflow be submitted concurrently?. i.e. I want to run 2 instances of the same workflow at same time from a Prefect server. So I assume that some UUID must be generated under the hood by Prefect to allow this? I know in a
Argo Workflow
, some random string is generated and appended to a workflow to disambiquate 2 workflows having the same name.

Yes, the same flow can have multiple concurrent runs.

@Jim Crist-Harif So how does one distinguished one run from another? some UUID or...?
j
Each flow run has a flow run id associated with it, which is a uuid.

FYI you can also name your flow runs to help distinguish them
