Getting Started
The Universal Transfer Operator allows data transfers between any supported source and target Datasets. It offers a consistent agnostic interface, simplifying the users’ experience, so they do not need to use specific providers or operators for transfers.
This ensures a consistent set of Data Providers
that can read from and write to Datasets. The Universal Transfer
Operator can use the respective Data Providers
to transfer between as a source and a destination. It also takes advantage of any existing fast and
direct high-speed endpoints, such as Snowflake’s built-in COPY INTO
command to load S3 files efficiently into Snowflake.
Universal transfer operator also supports the transfers using third-party platforms like Fivetran.
There are three modes to transfer data using of the universal_transfer_operator
.
