 **Declarative Network Infrastructure Management for Arista EVPN-VXLAN Fabrics**
 
-A workflow-based orchestration system that uses NetBox as Source of Truth, [Kestra](https://kestra.io) for orchestration, and gNMI/YANG for atomic configuration management of Arista data center fabrics.
+A workflow-based orchestration system that uses NetBox as Source of Truth, [Prefect](https://prefect.io) for orchestration, and gNMI/YANG for atomic configuration management of Arista data center fabrics.
 
 ## 🎯 Project Vision
 
 Transform network infrastructure management from imperative scripting to true declarative infrastructure-as-code, where:
 
 - **Intent** is defined in NetBox (Custom Fields, Native Models, BGP Plugin)
-- **Orchestration** is handled by Kestra (declarative YAML workflows)
+- **Orchestration** is handled by Prefect (Python-native `@flow` and `@task` decorators)
 - **State** is continuously monitored via gNMI Subscribe
 - **Changes** are computed as diffs and applied atomically via gNMI Set
 - **Drift** is detected and optionally auto-remediated
 
-Think `terraform plan` and `terraform apply`, but for your network fabric — powered by Kestra workflows.

+## 🎛 Why Prefect?

+We chose [Prefect](https://prefect.io) as the orchestration engine for several reasons:
 
 | Feature | Benefit |
 |---------|---------|
-| **Declarative YAML workflows** | Infrastructure-as-Code for orchestration logic |
-| **Built-in UI** | Dashboard, logs, metrics, execution history — no custom development |
-| **Native webhooks** | Direct NetBox integration without custom FastAPI server |
-| **Event-driven triggers** | Schedule, webhook, flow triggers out of the box |
-| **Python task support** | Run containerized Python scripts with dependencies |
-| **DAG support** | Automatic dependency ordering with `io.kestra.core.tasks.flows.Dag` |
-| **Retry & error handling** | Built-in retry policies and error notifications |
-| **Secrets management** | Native secrets storage for credentials |
+| **Python-native workflows** | Use `@flow` and `@task` decorators — no YAML, just Python |
+| **Free secrets management** | Native `Secret` blocks for credentials (free in OSS) |
+| **Built-in UI** | Dashboard, logs, metrics, execution history via `prefect server start` |
+| **No containerization required** | Run flows directly with `.serve()` — no Docker needed |
+| **Event-driven triggers** | Schedule, webhooks (via FastAPI), flow triggers out of the box |
+| **Task dependencies** | Automatic dependency ordering via task result passing or `wait_for` |
+| **Retry & error handling** | Built-in retry policies with `@task(retries=3)` |
+| **Human-in-the-loop** | Native `pause_flow_run()` for approval workflows |
+
+### Kestra vs Prefect Comparison
+
+| Aspect | Kestra | Prefect |
+|--------|--------|---------|
+| **Workflow definition** | YAML external files | Python code (`@flow`, `@task`) |
+| **Secrets management** | ❌ Paid in OSS | ✅ Free (`Secret` blocks) |
+| **Code packaging** | Container required | Not required |
+| **Integration** | Isolated scripts | Native Python integration |
+| **Webhooks** | Built-in triggers | FastAPI + `run_deployment()` |
