Hey folks. I wrote a prefect integration that add a couple of flows to a prefect server and turns prefect into a managed file transfer appliance. This makes it easy to use the prefect UI as a GUI to configure file movement jobs between multiple servers and cloud storage locations.
It also adds support for rclone - so prefect integration into pretty much every cloud storage provider in one go.
Let me know what you think. https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/prefect-managedfiletransfer

Also set it up on docker hub so you can take it for a spin with a built in server/worker and give it a try
Copy code
docker run --rm -it -p 4200:4200 managedfiletransfer/prefect-managedfiletransfer:latest
