Was hoping for something about rapid prototyping of electrical connectors.
In the end, data is transported as electrical current so it is not completely off :)

#12Exciting! Hoping to build Reddit & Stack Overflow connectors
Let us know if we can help on slack (https://slack.airbyte.io) #connector-development or we can schedule a coding call call with you

#13This looks great. I’d love to throw up an instance locally and play with it at work, but that likely wouldn’t happen for a long time (local gov -> slow processes).
That being said, I’ve got a fun project in mind which I may find a use case for this. I’ll give it a shot.
Re: How to build a custom data connector in 2 hours
#14Does anyone have some mid-long-term feedback on the use of the community edition of Airbyte in particular?
What do you want to know? I've been using since late-Jan / early-Feb.
I fired up an EC2 instance, docker-compose'd up, added the initial few syncs and then let people just add their own.
Mostly without trouble since then, though I'm running an old version as a result of the fire-and-forget.
(edit: also, text me on Keybase or email me since I don't get notifications for responses here)

#16cool! Nice work
Thx!
Re: How to build a custom data connector in 2 hours
#17Very cool. Honestly, I’ve been using a mostly vanilla Airbyte. There are already enough connectors that I usually don’t need to write a new one. Pretty thrilled with how fast these guys have been going honestly. Only picked up their stuff a few months ago and there are already more and better connectors today than there were back then. I’ve been slowly moving over my error prone sync scripts to my Airbyte instance. L…
Makes our day to read your comment :)

#19Was hoping for something about rapid prototyping of electrical connectors.
Same, I was expecting some 3D printing, maybe some experimentation about how much spacing is needed between pins for insulation and how large the contact surfaces should be etc.
I was excited.

#20One question: who is your customer archetype?
Data engineers, data scientist & analytics engineers. People that be users of Airbyte but also can be contributors. For data engineers, the objectives is to help them empower other roles to be data fluent and have the freedom to move data without bugging data engineers
How suited is Airbyte for multi-tennant use-cases?
I might have a project coming up to build a semi-analytics solution where you would obviously want to allow the users to easily connect to their data sources, and Airbyte looks like it might be a good fit for that (for now my rough idea was to build some plumbing around Singer taps). Are you aware of any users that use it for such purposes and are there any specific pitfalls too look out for there?
