At @kestra.io, we have raised 25M$ in a Series A led by RTP Global. Proud moment, but what gets me more excited is what it opens up. We're working hard on Kestra 2.0 🧵 kestra.io/blogs/kestra...

VMware is everywhere when you need to virtualize. They’re great at it. But orchestration is still stuck in vRA, Aria, or scripts, mostly because there hasn’t been a clean alternative. What if VMware operations were just workflows? 👉 kestra.io/blogs/contro...

COBOL is trending again. Takes are predictable: “rewrite it” … “AI will solve it.” Hot take: COBOL isn’t the problem. Claude isn’t the answer. Un-orchestrated systems are. AI can help. Orchestration makes it safe. We ran COBOL + Claude in Kestra 👇 🎥 youtu.be/_SQWQoaCkLM
Does Claude Actually Know COBOL?

ELT or ETL? ETL transforms before loading, so what lands is already clean and compliant. ELT loads raw first, then transforms in the warehouse, which is faster and more flexible at cloud scale. Kestra orchestrates either way: youtu.be/VxOmetLBTxE
