Google Boosts BigQuery Data Transfer Service with New Connectors
Google has expanded its BigQuery Data Transfer Service with new connectors and features to reduce manual work for moving data into BigQuery. The update includes preview support for Microsoft SQL Server, Shopify, Klaviyo, HubSpot, and Mailchimp, alongside general availability for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and a Snowflake migration connector.
The new database options include full and incremental transfers for Microsoft SQL Server in preview, while PostgreSQL and MySQL are now generally available with replication from on-premise environments, Cloud SQL, and other cloud platforms.
BigQuery Data Transfer Service is Google's managed tool for moving data into BigQuery. The latest changes aim to reduce the manual work required to build and maintain extract, transform, and load pipelines.
