Integration support policy
For production environments, GX recommends using the integrations defined as GX-supported.
GX uses libraries such as Pandas, Spark, and SQLAlchemy to integrate with different Data Sources. This also allows you to deploy GX with community-supported integrations.
Support categories
The following are the levels of support provided by GX:
-
GX-supported - integrations are tested throughout the development lifecycle and are actively maintained and updated when new GX Cloud or GX OSS versions are released.
-
Community-supported - integrations are implemented by the community or GX. GX is not responsible for ensuring integration reliability or compatibility.
