- **added** — SSH orchestrator and SSH step operator for executing workloads on remote machines accessible via SSH

<!-- ZENML_GITBOOK_RELEASE_NOTES_START tag=0.96.1 -->
- **Run pipelines and steps over SSH**: ZenML now includes an SSH orchestrator and SSH step operator for executing workloads on remote machines accessible via SSH ([PR #4953](https://github.com/zenml-io/zenml/pull/4953)). This makes it easier to use existing servers or on-prem infrastructure as execution targets without adopting a full cluster-based backend, while still managing runs through ZenML.
