dbt-exasol adapter

When I started developing the dbt-exasol adapter, my goal was clear:

to seamlessly combine the power of Exasol with the flexibility of dbt Labs.


Today, I am delighted to announce that the adapter is now officially part of the Trusted Adapter Program! 🚀


Admission to this program is not a given. The adapter has undergone a rigorous process that goes far beyond pure code.


What does this mean for you?

  • Maintainability: Guaranteed stability for your data pipelines.
  • Documentation & UX: Clear guidelines for easy implementation.
  • Official recommendation: dbt Labs explicitly recommends “Trusted Adapters” for use in critical production environments.

Open source thrives on trust. In a world where the choice of tools is constantly growing, this seal offers the necessary security that we used to only know from expensive proprietary software.


A big thank you to Exasol, dbt Labs, and the entire community for their support and feedback along the way.


I look forward to seeing what complex data pipelines you can simplify next with Exasol and dbt!
