Kestra is an open-source, event-driven orchestrator that simplifies data operations and improves collaboration between engineers and business users. By bringing Infrastructure as Code best practices to data pipelines, Kestra allows you to build reliable workflows and manage them with confidence. Thanks to the declarative YAML interface for defining orchestration logic, everyone who benefits from analytics can participate in the data pipeline creation process. The UI automatically adjusts the YAML definition any time you make changes to a workflow from the UI or via an API call. Therefore, the orchestration logic is defined declaratively in code, even if some workflow components are modified in other ways.
