GitHub is a renowned and respected development platform that provides code hosting services to developers for building software for both open source and private projects. It is a heavily trafficked platform where users can store and share code repositories and obtain support, advice, and help from known and unknown contributors. Three features in particular—pull request, fork, and merge—have made GitHub a powerful ally for developers and earned it a place as a (developers’) household name.

5. Select the repositories you want to connect to Airbyte and click "Test Connection" to ensure that the connection is successful.
6. Once the connection is successful, click "Create Connection" to save the connection.
7. You can now use the GitHub source connector to extract data from your selected repositories and integrate it with other data sources in Airbyte.
1. First, ensure that you have the necessary credentials to access your Oracle DB. This includes the hostname, port number, database name, username, and password.
2. Open the Airbyte platform and navigate to the "Destinations" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
3. Scroll down until you find the "Oracle DB" destination connector and click on it.
4. Click on the "Create new connection" button to begin setting up your Oracle DB destination.
5. Enter a name for your connection and fill in the required fields with your Oracle DB credentials.
6. Test the connection to ensure that Airbyte can successfully connect to your Oracle DB.
7. Once the connection is successful, you can configure the settings for your Oracle DB destination. This includes selecting the tables you want to sync, setting up any transformations or mappings, and scheduling the sync frequency.
8. Save your settings and start the sync process. Airbyte will begin pulling data from your source and pushing it to your Oracle DB destination.
9. Monitor the sync process to ensure that it is running smoothly and troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
10. Once the sync is complete, you can access your data in your Oracle DB and use it for analysis, reporting, or any other purposes.
With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
We look forward to seeing you make use of it! We invite you to join the conversation on our community Slack Channel, or sign up for our newsletter. You should also check out other Airbyte tutorials, and Airbyte’s content hub!
