What You Get With Kestra
What You Get With Kestra Cloud
Runs where you run
Deploy Kestra on your own infrastructure, cloud, or Kubernetes. Full control over networking, data locality, security boundaries, and upgrade cadence. No vendor lock-in, no black boxes.Built for production orchestration
Kestra is designed for long-running, stateful workflows with retries, backfills, and failure handling built in. It's not a task runner bolted onto cron, it's a production-grade orchestration engine.Language and tool agnostic
Orchestrate SQL, Python, shell, APIs, Terraform, dbt, Spark, or custom tools in the same workflows. Kestra doesn't force a runtime or SDK on your teams.Declarative by default
Workflows, triggers, and dependencies are defined as code. Version them, review them, promote them across environments. Infrastructure as Code, but for orchestration.Scales from one team to many
Start with a single namespace or cluster, grow to multiple teams, projects, and environments. Isolation, permissions, and execution limits are first-class concepts.Enterprise governance when you need it

We switched from Airflow because we want engineers solving problems, not coding orchestration. Kestra delivers end-to-end automation with the robustness we need at our scale. Few companies operate at this level, especially in AI/ML.
Kestra Cloud has been a pivotal part of giving us flexibility and scalability we need to pull off complex processes we do at Foundation Direct.
