My main use case for Airbyte Cloud is for ETL. I tend to use Airbyte Cloud to extract data from one data source and put it into another data source for VTN. We extracted data from Postgres and dumped it into Redshift, which is an example of a real workflow I have set up.

Cloud data workflows have streamlined ETL and now need broader, more customizable connectors
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
I think the various connectors out of the box are the best features Airbyte Cloud offers. I don't need to create custom code to do this kind of work, so it is easy for me to use out-of-the-box connectors in my day-to-day work.

Great AI Connector Builder, But Limited for Complex Tasks
Airbyte Review
Data Pipleine
2. Good Documentation
3. Good amount of connectors and destinations
2. The schema created in the destination is not very easy to read.
Useful for ELT approach. Still a long way to go.
This will help us use most of the connectors easily.
Deployment is simple.
Had to switch from using Kustomise to deploy Airbyte to using helm Charts.
Lots of intermittent issues on custom connectors will always be a challenge.
Replicas from AWS DynamoDB at regular intervals.
Replicas of other DBs on AWS and GCP like Postgres, MySQL etc.
Error handling and Retries.
Throttling.
