Workflow automation

Kestra

Declarative, language-agnostic task orchestration with event triggers and a plugin ecosystem.

Overview

Research summary

Kestra defines scheduled and event-driven workflows declaratively, using YAML and a web interface to coordinate tasks. Its plugin ecosystem connects external services and executes workloads written in different languages, making it suitable for data pipelines, AI processing and infrastructure automation. The platform provides execution history and operational controls around those tasks. The open-source core is implemented in Java and published under Apache 2.0; YAML is the workflow definition format rather than its implementation language. Enterprise and managed offerings extend the core under separate commercial terms.
