Hi all, I've got a quick question pertaining to Flyte functionality: I have used Prefect before, and it has the ability to connect from an on prem deployment to a cloud provider to run jobs in the cloud - does Flyte also support this? Essentially, I want to be able to host it on prem, but have the ability to push pipeline runs to the cloud but I can't find anything in the documentation about it.

Hi @Brennan Tolman Flyte supports a development flow that can start from local (that's, your Python venv, not even K8s), then running the same code against a local Flyte cluster just by adding the
--remote
modifier, or also just pointing your
endpoint
to your remote environment hosted on cloud. Unfortunately the docs don't follow this logical path yet, but consider these sections: Local execution: https://docs.flyte.org/projects/cookbook/en/latest/index.html#running-flyte-workflows-in-python On-prem minimalistic cluster: https://docs.flyte.org/projects/cookbook/en/latest/index.html#running-workflows-in-a-flyte-cluster Cloud deployment: https://docs.flyte.org/en/latest/deployment/deployment/cloud_simple.html#installation What cloud provider you plan to use?

Thank you @David Espejo (he/him) - @Brennan Tolman Flyte is different from prefect, that it is a serverless engine - i.e. you can submit a job from anywhere and it will run on the k8s cluster to which flyte is attached it can be cross cloud, cross on-prem, laptop to cloud etc. also look at Union AI to see a fully managed hybrid deployment in your cloud
