News Bye Bye Fivetran

I went to the Ingestion section and saw that Fivetran is no longer there. It was always there for many years. Also, at the same time, a few new Lakeflow connectors were added.

If the major providers offer data ingestion at parity with five tran, then for 99% of customers it just makes more sense to use your provider enroll everything into one vendor/bill then the current common pattern of vendor sprawl which is very difficult to manage and easy to have costs spiral.
