I’m currently working at a startup and planning to build a data closed-loop system using Flyte. Our pipeline will cover the entire lifecycle: data collection, cleaning, labeling, feature embedding, model training, and offline inference. Since we are starting from scratch with no legacy constraints, would you recommend going straight with Flyte 2.0 or sticking with Flyte 1.x? Also, do you have any specific advice for this setup?

My take would be to use Flyte2. Thats what the team is moving forward with. But in the mean time try out flyte 1 in your pre-prod/development so you know the use cases and gather some familiarity with the tools. Flyte 2 OSS will be available to general public in the first quarter of 2026. Also they have Union 2 managed service which you can try, which already uses Flyte 2
