If it's all Python, why not use Prefect?
2 comments

It didn't exist when we bootstrapped our department. Nowadays Airflow is a dev favorite and we have no good reason to seek alternatives.
First time I read about Prefect, can you briefly share why you would use prefect over airflow if using only python? (that's what I am about to be doing soon...)
Have been a Prefect user since their first release. In a nutshell, it's a native pythonic DAG tool, where Airflow is a DAG tool that happens to be written in Python.
