FieldTypeDescription
database*stringName of the database.
host*stringHostname of the database.
port*integerPort of the database.
schema*stringThe default schema tables are written. If not specified otherwise, the "public" schema will be used.
username*stringUsername to access the database.
cdc_deletion_modestringWhether to execute CDC deletions as hard deletes (i.e. propagate source deletions to the destination), or soft deletes (i.e. leave a tombstone record in the destination). Defaults to hard deletes.
disable_type_dedupebooleanDisable Writing Final Tables. WARNING! The data format in _airbyte_data is likely stable but there are no guarantees that other metadata columns will remain the same in future versions
drop_cascadebooleanDrop tables with CASCADE. WARNING! This will delete all data in all dependent objects (views, etc.). Use with caution. This option is intended for usecases which can easily rebuild the dependent objects.

Hybrid deployment

Sovereign by architecture, not by policy.

The data plane runs in your environment. Records, credentials and keys stay with you; the control plane only receives configuration and job metadata.

Yes. The Postgres destination supports full refresh and incremental sync, so Airbyte can load only the records that changed since the last sync.

Where can I run the Postgres connector?

Run the Postgres connector on Cloud, OSS, Hybrid. Hybrid deployments keep the data plane in your environment while the control plane orchestrates syncs.
