Hello, Weaviate Community!

Can you believe it's almost the end of October? That means it's time to wrap up Hacktoberfest, our month-long celebration of all things open source. But hold on, it's not over just yet! Find out how you can participate in the final contributions to Hacktoberfest at Weaviate and have a chance to score some fun stuff.

This season is all about hackathons, fresh learning materials, and more. Let's dive in! 🚀

Airbyte integration with Weaviate

Weaviate is now officially certified as a destination in Airbyte! 🚀

What does this mean for you? It means you can seamlessly integrate data from various sources like GitHub, Jira, and more into your Weaviate instance. Whether you're a developer, data scientist, or business professional, this integration opens up a world of possibilities for data exploration and analysis.

Ready to explore these possibilities? Start with our comprehensive documentation: Weaviate on Airbyte Documentation
