Hi Douwe, Taylor, and team!

Congratulations on the launch, looks exciting!

I'm curious if you're planning to turn Meltano Cloud into a managed ELT solution.

The FAQ at the bottom of the pricing page[1] describes Meltano Cloud as an EL solution, but the docs for open-source Meltano[2] highlight that it's an ELT tool.

Thanks! Meltano is primarily focused on EL, but we let you run any Python data tool or custom script as well, including dbt (Core) for transformation. So we occupy a space somewhere between EL tools like Fivetran and workflow orchestrators like Airflow/Astronomer, and depending on what you add to your Meltano projects, you can use it for either EL, ELT, just T, or anything you can come up with.
