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 :pyData Providers <universal_transfer_operator.data_providers> that can read from and write to dataset. The Universal Transfer Operator can use the respective :pyData Providers <universal_transfer_operator.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.
