Claude is a data engineer secretary now. The Prefect MCP server is now in beta - try it out! claude mcp add prefect -- uvx --from prefect-mcp prefect-mcp-server www.prefect.io/blog/a-prefe...

I'm teaming up with @sa.muelcolvin.com to launch a new meetup series, Py AI. Our first one is November 11 in San Francisco with talks from @pydantic.dev, @modal-labs.bsky.social, ReductoAI and @fastmcp.bsky.social. Hosted by our friends at pebblebed.com RSVP here: luma.com/gjtfecc7

Kudos again to the @prefect.io crew on doing documentation right for the AI era. I love everything about this -- mcp server, llms.txt and copy as markdown shortcut behavior

Prefect 3.4.17 is released! github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/releases/tag/3.4.17 it includes several fixes and improvements related to background tasks [1] and multi-server setups [2] [1] docs.prefect.io/v3/advanced/background-tasks [2] docs.prefect.io/v3/advanced/self-hosted

🔥 FastMCP Cloud is here We built FastMCP to simplify MCP servers. Now deployment is instant too. Push repo → Live endpoint in <1min 📕 Learn about FastMCP Cloud-> prefect.io/blog/acceler... 🚀 Deploy for free -> fastmcp.cloud

happy OSS release day! prefect 3.4.14 is out now and includes: - a new process-pool task runner - a CLI command for migrating resources between backends and many more minor enhancements and bug fixes! github.com/PrefectHQ/pr...

How does a CLI command to transfer resources between backends relate to Kahn's algorithm and topological sorting? How can the looming threat of an LLM character takedown keep us accountable? These are questions that can only be answered in one place: dev-log.prefect.io

A week maintaining an active open-source project can make you laugh, cry, or reenable spacebar heating to avoid breaking changes. We're starting a dev log to share the good, the bad and the ugly decision making that goes into every week's release of Prefect: dev-log.prefect.io/so-a-dev-log...

Assets, made simple.

In 10 months, Prefect's open-source adoption has grown nearly 6x. This growth revealed a clear need: scaling teams needed options between Hobby and Enterprise tiers. Last month we added two new plans & the response's been 🔥 - we're smashing goals faster than we can set them!

In 10 months, Prefect's open-source adoption has grown nearly 6x. This growth revealed a clear need: scaling teams need options between our Hobby and Enterprise offerings. Today we're introducing two new plans, Starter and Team, designed to grow alongside our community.

🚀 Prefect's downloads are now 6x what they were just 10 months ago — from 300K/week to 1.8M/week. The excitement, feedback, and contributions from our community have been humbling. 🙇🙇🙇

Great piece by @cicdw.dev on Task Runners in @prefect.io. By decoupling the definition of what to execute from how to execute it, graduating from threads to @raydistributed is a line of code.

hear me out

We did it, @prefect.io

your friend using @prefect.io and the one stuck maintaining @apache-airflow.bsky.social

i'm not crying, you're crying

Ever wondered how to model topic 'trends' like Bluesky and others do? 📈 📉 I was curious too so I built a headline analytics pipeline which leverages a logistic growth model to do this! Orchestrated with @prefect.io and #dbt ⏳ 🔧 github.com/johnnyb1694/... #datascience #dataengineering #python

At @prefect.io

I am beyond excited to have a second day, three track developer focused Dev Day for @prefect.io Summit! On January 23rd, join us to get *hands on* My promise to you is that you'll leave with working code you can actually use rather than just cool keynotes (which are great...but code is better)

Launched another new @prefect.io “office” this week. I think this one might be popular.

Thanks to everyone who braved the rain to talk agent workflows and break in the new @prefect.io offices! Also huge thanks to the OpenAI API for going down right after my first example. Gotta love live demos.

🚀 @prefect.io

Genuinely, every week: “You work at Prefect? Huh, never heard of it.” “WAIT. YOU’RE THE MARVIN GUYS?” 🫠

Looking forward to delivering the @prefect.io workshop at @pydatasoton.bsky.social on Tuesday with @cfrohmaier.bsky.social - it should be a great session, plus there will be prizes! #datascience #dataengineering #python

Excited to start my new role as VP of Developer Relations at @prefect.io! 🚀 Looking forward to diving into the data space, where I believe the real winners in our AI-driven world will be those who unlock the full potential of their business data. Let’s build!

Stories like this make me wonder how many companies are just putting up with legacy products. Endpoint swapped Astronomer for @prefect.io. In the first 3 months, pipelines doubled and cost fell almost 75%. I don't know how you measure ROI, but that's a lot. Do more; spend less!

Here's a good summary of the key note I gave at @prefect.io summit this summer. - The Rise of Object Storage - The Great Database Decomposition - Postgres's Renaissance - The Promise and Challenge of Durable Execution

Amazing work by @sentry.io! I’m very proud that @prefect.io is a founding member of @opensourcepledge.com

Apparently @prefect.io hit #1 on GitHub Trending on Saturday and to be honest we can't figure out the catalyst. Still #4 today.

So @prefect.io is trending on GitHub, and for the love of me can’t find out why. Any guesses?

Since launching Prefect 3, growth has been ~6% / week for 10 straight weeks. It's the fastest adoption we've seen... ever? Had a chance to meet a bunch of our new users in NY last week -- I'm coming back Tuesday for another round!
