**Department/Project Description**

Airbyte is an open source data portability tool. It allows users to move their data across APIs, databases, data warehouses, and data lakes in all directions.
Most companies have data spread across different services and systems and the volume of this data is growing. In order to make the best decisions, companies are looking for a way to consolidate this data into the warehouse or date lake of their choice and then ask data scientists and business analysts to extract insights in order to build a competitive edgeю
There are existing cloud solutions today with Fivetran and StitchData but both fall short in the number of connectors that they provide. This results in companies having to build and maintain a secondary system internally to accommodate missing connectors. Also both Fivetran and StitchData are cloud solutions which means that many companies can’t work with these services because they cannot let data leave their premises for security reasons.

Airbyte solves the following problems:

Provide an open source solution so organizations can contribute the connectors that are missing thus addressing all connectors
Provide a self hosted solution to solve the security problem
Disrupt existing pricing models that are most of the time based on volume.
