@Marvin is there any relationship between “base job template” and “prefect deployment yaml”?

In Prefect, the "base job template" and "prefect deployment YAML" serve distinct but related purposes in configuring flow deployments: 1. Base Job Template: This is a configuration framework within a work pool that defines how a worker should execute flow runs. The base job template includes a

job_configuration

section that can be interpolated with variables to customize execution environments. It acts as a contract for what can be configured per deployment or flow run, allowing deployment creators to adjust worker behavior. More details can be found in the work pools documentation. 2. Prefect Deployment YAML: This file (

prefect.yaml

) is used to define and manage deployments, specifying the settings, procedural steps, and environment preparation instructions for executing a deployment. It can be initialized using the CLI command

prefect init

and allows for structured deployment configurations. The prefect.yaml file is flexible, allowing overrides through CLI options when creating a deployment. More information can be found in the Prefect YAML documentation. While they are related in the sense that both are used to configure and manage deployments, the base job template is more about worker-level execution details, whereas the prefect.yaml file is about overall deployment configuration.
