How Kestra Ships 1300+ Plugins (Using Kestra)

The Plugins & Integrations team at Kestra manages over 1300 plugins connecting Kestra to various data and cloud services, including AWS, GCP, Azure, and more, requiring continuous updates and releases. Previously, managing these releases involved a manual, time-consuming process prone to interruptions and errors, but the team has now implemented a semi-automated workflow using Kestra's orchestration software to streamline this process. This new system includes five automated flows, each handling different aspects of the release lifecycle, such as validation, indexing, and notifying, with a manual approval step to ensure quality before releases are finalized. As a result, the team has reduced cognitive overhead, improved efficiency, and gained more time for tasks requiring human judgment, leading to a more reliable and visible plugin release process. The workflows are maintained using YAML files that are easy to read and modify, highlighting the benefits of automation and orchestration in managing a complex plugin ecosystem.
