Hi All, I have a quick question as I'm trying to understand Prefect I need my own machine/server, to make it work, right? Prefect Cloud is only a scheduler and logger for scripts running somewhere else. Is there any full cloud offering where I can upload files, schedule execution and forget?

Prefect is a hybrid model: there’s always a boundary between your code, your private infrastructure, and the Prefect backend. Thus, Prefect will not store your code. However, Prefect makes it very easy for you to connect to a remote storage

thanks @Khuyen Tran what about prefect agents? Do I still need a machine to execute tasks?
