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.

Hello @Dylan . 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 @Laraib Siddiqui, 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 & service accounts.
