About Windmill
Windmill is quietly turning its orchestrator into a DuckLake-native data platform.
Windmill remains a script-and-workflow orchestrator, but its recent output has narrowed almost entirely to the data layer: DuckLake materialization, partitioned assets, freshness, and now schema contracts. The changelog reads less like a general automation tool and more like a managed lakehouse being assembled on top of the existing job engine, with most of the heavier machinery gated to Enterprise Edition.
