Ah ah! We liked this diagram, because it explained how the product works. Also, we already used our own infographic on the cover page (https://airbyte.io/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Airbyte-Seed-D...), so we needed something different.

Regarding the differences between Airbyte and Fivetran, here's an article about it: https://docs.airbyte.io/faq/differences-with/fivetran-vs-air...

But essentially, open-source enables us to:

- address the long tail of integrations (our goal is 200+ by end of 2021) - we're working on a low-code/no-code framework to make it easier to build and maintain connectors

- give you flexibility/customizability to adapt pre-built connectors to your needs

- debugging autonomy (we're standardizing how connectors are being built, so maintenance can be done by us and the community)

- No more security and privacy compliance, as self-hosted and open-sourced (MIT)

- No more super high prices (volume-based) that don't make sense for big data companies.

You might take a look at Bonitasoft , I got some use out of their connectors ( and WYSIWYG builder ) ten years ago.
