Hi Prefectionists!

On this fifth and final day of launch week, we’re happy to open beta access Prefect Cloud 2.0 to the rest of the world (i.e. not only the Club 42 members)!

If you haven’t, create a free personal account and get started today! While your personal Cloud 2.0 account will be free forever - we do ask for a small favor in return - we need your feedback to make Prefect Cloud 2.0 the best orchestration platform possible.

Take it for a spin, and let us know what you think! Read more about Prefect Cloud 2.0 in the blog post by @justabill - our Head of Product:
