Thanks for your post, I was also at Stripe in this same time frame and got laid off. Lots of great systems, people and processes I learned as you described.

Zapier has a python / JS code step (basically a AWS lambda) you can use to do something like this. Downside is that it has a timeout of 10s

No one ever cares about the amounts of times you've failed. You only have to succeed once. Congrats on your journey

Having worked with Fivetran, Segment and Singer in the past I am really excited for an opensource solution like what you guys have developed. The long tail of connectors has been a real hassle when you work with mostly small companies who use very specific SaaS products.

Wish you guys best of luck

I've had great experience with shadow. I am pretty close to one of their servers (Dallas) so get around 8ms ping, but even up to 40ms ping it works very well.

Shadow.tech I have had good experiences with. It does take a while to go from sign-up to them actually spinning up a machine for you but the latency is extremely good for cloud gaming.
