Decision brief
Developed in Java, Kestra offers robust orchestration and scheduling services for mission-critical applications with support for infrastructure as code, event-driven architectures, and tight CI/CD integration.
Good fit when
- When you are working on mission-critical applications and need a platform that supports both infrastructure as code (IaC) and event-driven architecture.
- In scenarios where your team prefers to use Java for orchestration tasks, leveraging the Terraform provider included with Kestra can streamline resource management.
Avoid when
- In environments where infrastructure as code (IaC) or event-driven architecture do not align with the project requirements, as these represent core functionalities of Kestra.
- For teams deeply invested in languages other than Java or looking to avoid it due to existing tech stacks and expertise.
- Requirements:
- Min 2 GB RAM; Requires Docker; Requires Docker to deploy using the provided Terraform module on Google Cloud.; Strongly recommended for use in Java-based environments due to its native support.
