In the era of data-driven transformation, breaking down “data silos” is the cornerstone of every enterprise’s digital journey. As the next-generation high-performance, distributed, and massive-scale data integration framework, Apache SeaTunnel stands out with its powerful connector ecosystem that can “connect everything.” Today, we bring you the most complete list of Apache SeaTunnel Source connectors ever, showcasing the breadth and depth of its ecosystem. Whether you’re an architect, data engineer, or developer, this list is worth bookmarking! Apache SeaTunnel, with its highly pluggable architecture, can easily integrate with various data sources. Developers don’t need to worry about implementation details—simple configuration is enough to read and write massive datasets. Below, we categorize Source connectors into 10 major groups and review them one by one. 🗃️ 1. The Classics: Relational Databases Relational databases are at the core of enterprise operations. SeaTunnel offers broad support for mainstream relational databases, from traditional commercial systems to emerging domestic solutions.
