We are the open data movement platform. Airbyte is built around the idea of making data accessible for everyone, and empowering organizations to scale insights with less effort. Built on an open-source foundation, the Airbyte platform can be deployed on the cloud or on-premise. It is uniquely poised to solve the challenges of modern data infrastructure.
Most data integration platforms prioritize the most common connectors in their marketplaces. As a result, one of the biggest obstacles organizations face is the lack of support for less common or “long-tail” data connectors. Inevitably, every organization needs to build and manage homegrown connectors. However, managing custom connectors, subject to code and schema changes, has great potential for errors. That is the problem we are solving at Airbyte.
Airbyte features the ultimate blend of simplicity and customizability. Our marketplace features 600+ data connectors, as well as a proprietary custom connector builder. This is meant for users who need to create custom data connectors for their specific needs. In just 10 minutes, data engineers can build production-ready custom connectors, enabling integration of data across diverse platforms and ecosystems. Airbyte solves the issue of long-tail connectors while also avoiding the quirks of managing ad-hoc custom pipelines.
What is next for Airbyte? The company is on track to reach more than 1,000 connectors by the end of 2025. The self-managed enterprise solution allows companies to build AI applications without surrendering control of their first-party data. Connect with us to learn how Airbyte can help your organization.
