Is Airbyte open source?

Yes. Airbyte is the open-source data movement platform. It replicates data from 700+ sources into warehouses, lakes, and AI applications. You can run it in Airbyte Cloud, in your own environment with Airbyte Flex, or fully self-managed. Flex uses the same connectors and configuration as Airbyte OSS, so you can start with open source and add a managed control plane later without rebuilding your pipelines.

How does hybrid deployment (Airbyte Flex) work?

Flex is Airbyte's hybrid deployment. Airbyte manages the control plane: the UI, scheduling, and upgrades. Your data plane runs in your cloud account, VPC, or data center, so the data itself never leaves your environment. Only metadata leaves: connection configuration, schedules, and job status. Records, credentials, and encryption keys stay in your data plane.

How is Airbyte priced?

The Standard and Plus Cloud plans are usage-based and you can start for free. Airbyte Pro and Flex are priced on capacity, not on rows or data volume, so costs stay predictable as data grows.

How many connectors are there, and can I build my own?

Airbyte ships 700+ connectors. You can build your own with the Connector Builder in minutes without code, or use the open-source CDK for full control.

How does Airbyte work with AI agents?

The Airbyte MCP server, available for Cloud and OSS, lets agents and AI tools like Claude and Cursor build, run, and debug pipelines. Agents work with the data Airbyte replicates into your warehouse, under the same credentials and access controls as your pipelines.

Can I migrate from HVR, Informatica, Fivetran, or Airbyte Core?

Run Airbyte alongside your current tool. Move three to five high-priority pipelines first, validate them, then migrate the rest on your schedule. Our team plans the cutover with you.

Your data. Your agents. In your boundary.

Replicate data from 700+ sources, from legacy DBs like Oracle and Db2 to SaaS apps like Salesforce, inside your VPC or on Airbyte Cloud. Turn your warehouse into the context layer for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and your own agents.

> Why did last night's Salesforce sync fail?

⏺ airbyte · list_connections(name_contains: "CRM", failing_connections_only: true)
⏺ airbyte · list_connection_sync_jobs(connection_id: "9f3c…")
⏺ airbyte · get_connection_sync_logs(connection_id: "9f3c…", job_id: 48211)

The 02:00 sync failed on stream Opportunity. A field was removed
upstream (Legacy_Region__c) and the destination schema still expects it.

Fix: refresh the source schema and resync Opportunity.

Sovereign by architecture, not by policy.

Airbyte Flex gives you managed Airbyte without handing over your data. Only metadata crosses the line between what we run and what you run.

Get a Demo

Airbyte hosts the UI, API, scheduler, upgrades, and connector updates, so your team doesn’t operate any of it. It sees configuration, schedules, and job status. It never sees a record.
