In this full getting started guide, I’ll show you everything you need to know to get up and running with Kestra — the open source workflow orchestration platform that makes it easy to automate your infrastructure tasks, schedule jobs, and build powerful flows without complex scripting. We’ll start from scratch: setting up a Linux server, installing Docker, and deploying Kestra. Then we’ll dive into building real-world flows — including an HTTP health check monitor, a remote SSH command runner, and an Ansible playbook runner for automated server provisioning. By the end of this video, you’ll have a working Kestra instance and a solid understanding of how to build and manage your own automation workflows. *🙌 Thanks to Kestra for Sponsoring this Deep-Dive* Check out Kestra and automate your workflows for both homelab and business: ➜ https://fandf.co/41j2IFW ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ *🔗 Video-Specific Links* - Check out Kestra ➜ https://fandf.co/41j2IFW - Give Kestra a Star on Github ➜ https://github.com/kestra-io/kestra - Kestra's new Proxmox Plugin ➜ https://learnlinux.link/kestra-proxmox - Kestra's Documentation ➜ https://kestra.io/docs - Official blog post for this video ➜ https://learnlinux.link/kestra ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ *📖 Switch to Linux with my latest book!
