Bring your towel and join one of the fastest growing data communities. Welcome to our second-generation open source orchestration platform, a completely rethought approach to dataflow automation.

Prefect Community

Hey! Laraib here. I am a data engineer. We are trying to switch from crontab to a more feature-full orchestration tool. I am pushing for prefect against ariflow.

Hey <@U04GFLFF79A>! Welcome to the community :smile:

Let us know if we can help with your proposal! We've got plenty of material to share :chart_with_upwards_trend:

Hello <@UKVFX6N3B> . Yes you can be of help. I am trying to understand the advantages prefect cloud and the cost associated with respect to running it locally on my host.

Hey <@U04GFLFF79A>, Prefect Cloud has a Free Tier you can get started with. Essentially, the difference is that if you run Prefect Core on your own host, you're hosting the _orchestration_ infrastructure (i.e. the entity that records states and logs and coordinates your flows) as well as the _execution_ infrastructure (i.e. the place your flow code executes). Prefect Cloud also has a number of features that expand on Prefect Core's concepts, such as users &amp; service accounts.

Welcome! Good luck with your PoC, keep us posted how it goes :rocket:

Hey <@U04GFLFF79A> glad to have you in the community :smile:
