Hello, world! 👋
We've rebuilt data engineering for the data science era.
Prefect is a new workflow management system, designed for modern infrastructure and powered by the open-source Prefect Core workflow engine. Users organize Tasks into Flows, and Prefect takes care of the rest.
Read the docs; get the code; ask us anything!
from prefect import task, Flow
@task
def say_hello():
print("Hello, world!")
with Flow("My First Flow") as flow:
say_hello()
flow.run() # "Hello, world!"

"...Prefect?"
From the Latin praefectus, meaning "one who is in charge", a prefect is an official who oversees a domain and makes sure that the rules are followed. Similarly, Prefect is responsible for making sure that workflows execute properly.
It also happens to be the name of a roving researcher for that wholly remarkable book, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
