Features

Add capability to launch Metaflow tasks on Kubernetes and schedule Metaflow flows with Argo Workflows.

This release enables brand new capabilities for Metaflow on top of Kubernetes. You can now run --with kubernetes all or parts of any Metaflow flow on top of any Kubernetes cluster from your workstation. To execute your flow asynchronously, you can deploy the flow to Argo Workflows (a Kubernetes-native workflow scheduler) with a single command - argo-workflows create.

To get started, take a look at the deployment guide for Kubernetes. Your feedback and feature requests are highly appreciated! - please reach out to us at slack.outerbounds.co
