@Marvin how do visualise the asset dependency and or materialised assets in the prefect ui?

In Prefect 3.x, you can visualize your assets and their dependencies in several ways through the Prefect UI: 1. Assets Dashboard - Navigate to the "Assets" tab in the main navigation - This view shows all your assets and their current state - You can see when assets were last materialized and their lineage 2. Asset Graph View - Within the Assets dashboard, click on any asset to see its details - The "Graph" tab shows a visual representation of the asset's dependencies - Upstream and downstream dependencies are displayed as connected nodes - The graph is interactive - you can click on nodes to navigate between related assets 3. Materialization History - In an asset's detail view, you can see the history of all materializations - Each materialization shows: - Timestamp - Status - Metadata - Any associated flow run information 4. Asset Status - Assets are color-coded to indicate their status: - Green: Successfully materialized - Red: Failed materialization - Grey: Never materialized You can access these visualizations by going to
https://<your-prefect-server>/assets
if you're using Prefect Cloud, or
<http://localhost:4200/assets>
if you're running Prefect server locally. For more details, you can check out the official documentation on assets at https://docs.prefect.io/latest/concepts/assets/. Note: The exact visualization features might vary slightly depending on your Prefect version and whether you're using Prefect Cloud or self-hosted Prefect.

@Marvin I am running prefect locally and the version that I am using is the latest 3.4.7 but I do not see the assets ui

Ah, I need to correct my previous response. The Assets UI visualization feature is currently only available to Prefect Cloud users. This explains why you're not seeing it in your local installation, even though you're running the latest version 3.4.7. While you can still use assets in your code with open-source Prefect, the visual interface for asset dependencies and materializations is a Prefect Cloud feature. If you need to visualize your asset dependencies, you have a few alternatives: 1. Sign up for a free Prefect Cloud account to access the Assets UI 2. Use alternative methods to track your assets locally: - Log asset metadata using the Prefect logger - Create custom tracking using the assets' metadata - Use the Python API to query asset information programmatically If visualization of dependencies is critical for your workflow, you might want to consider trying out Prefect Cloud, which offers a free tier that includes the Assets UI feature.

@Marvin how do I know how much 500 serverless compute credits per month does?

Based on the available information, here's what we know about the 500 serverless compute credits: 1. Credit Usage Pattern: - Credits are only consumed during actual task runtime - You're not charged for idle time or scheduling - Credits are used only when tasks are actively executing 2. What Affects Credit Consumption: - Task runtime duration - Computational resources used - Number of concurrent tasks - Task complexity However, I must point out that the exact conversion rate of credits to compute time isn't publicly documented in detail. To get a precise understanding of how far 500 credits would go for your specific use case, I'd recommend: 1. Starting with a small test workflow that's representative of your typical workload 2. Monitoring the credit usage in your Prefect Cloud dashboard 3. Using that as a baseline to extrapolate your monthly usage Alternatively, you can reach out to Prefect's support team or sales representatives for a more detailed breakdown of credit consumption rates and how they would apply to your specific workflow patterns. For most small to medium-sized workflows running regularly, 500 credits should provide a reasonable amount of compute capacity, but the exact mileage will vary based on your specific usage patterns.
