Adaptation ideas

What to apply to your own product

  1. Idea: curate a narrow connector bundle for a specific SaaS category.
  2. Idea: add opinionated monitoring and replay controls around selected pipelines.

Tradeoff to consider

An integration ecosystem accelerates source coverage but creates connector-version and configuration maintenance.

Starting route

Initialize a project and run one source-to-target pipeline using the slim image.
