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
Add RBAC, policies, promote, cases, audit logs, and secrets management when your teams need them.Fully Managed
Forget about infrastructure operations, upgrades, patching, backups, or capacity planning. Kestra Cloud is fully managed by our team so you can focus on building workflows, shipping automation, and delivering value faster.Fast Onboarding & Deployment
Skip the setup phase and go straight to execution. Kestra Cloud gives you a ready-to-use production environment, so your team can start orchestrating pipelines immediately without spending weeks on installation and configuration.Security & Access Control
Protect your workflows and your data with enterprise-grade security. Kestra Cloud provides built-in access control, authentication options, and governance features so you can scale adoption across teams while staying compliant.Monitoring & Observability
Get full visibility into your automation platform. Track executions, debug failures faster, and monitor performance through built-in observability features designed to keep operations smooth and predictable.Pay-as-you-scale Model

We switched from Airflow to Kestra 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.
