Airbyte vs. Singer: Why Airbyte Is Not Built on Top of Singer

Airbyte's data protocol will be compatible with Singer's, allowing users to integrate and use Singer's taps. However, the two protocols differ in many ways. Unlike Singer, which lacks standardization and real ownership, Airbyte has one single repo for the whole project and all connectors, promoting consolidated developments and a unified community vision. Additionally, Airbyte runs connectors as Docker containers, allowing contributors to build connectors in their preferred language. The platform also separates extract-load from transformation, enabling users to choose how they want to use data. Furthermore, Airbyte offers a UI and API for addressing the needs of various teams and is fully committed to maintaining open-source connectors without premium options.
