Day 03 · Headliner

More features for data engineers and platform teams

Last month, we orchestrated two millennia of compute. We’ve spent the quarter turning the patterns we saw from high-scale teams into first-class features: infrastructure debugging in the UI, managed automations, config plugins, default result storage, the Assets Catalog, and more.

01

Infrastructure Debugging

Memory pressure, pod logs, and evictions in the run page. Stop opening CloudWatch.

Day 02

Prefect dbt Orchestrator

dbt repeats work that hasn’t changed and spins up a Kubernetes pod per task. The Prefect dbt Orchestrator runs your graph node by node, with state-aware caching that skips unchanged work, per-model retries, and concurrency that uses the rest of your stack.

Infrastructure Decorators

Pipelines that need different machines for different steps used to require three flows, three deployments, and a fourth flow to coordinate them. Now you can route a function to a work pool with a decorator, and Prefect handles the rest.
