[[{“value”:”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.
