@kapa.ai bulk cdk for java connector

Based on the knowledge sources provided, I can offer some information about the Bulk CDK for Java connectors in Airbyte. Airbyte recommends using the Java CDK for building source or destination connectors against traditional databases (not HTTP APIs or vector databases). The Java CDK, specifically the Bulk CDK, is designed to improve performance and reduce costs for data loading. Recent updates to the Bulk CDK for Java connectors include: 1. Adoption of the latest Bulk CDK version in several connectors, as seen in the changelogs for BigQuery and S3 destinations. 2. Performance improvements and bug fixes, such as: - Combining DDL operations into a single execution - Fixing issues with loading credentials from GCP environments - Improving error reporting and logging 3. Ongoing development and updates to enhance connector functionality and compatibility with the latest Airbyte platform requirements. However, it's important to note that the documentation doesn't provide a comprehensive guide specifically for building a custom Java source connector using the Bulk CDK. The information about Java connector development is somewhat limited. If you're looking to build a custom Java source connector, you might want to start by examining existing Java-based connectors in the Airbyte repository and consulting the [Airbyte documentation on Connector Development](https://docs.airbyte.com/connector-development). Additionally, you can seek help in the [Airbyte Slack channel dedicated to connector development](https://airbytehq.slack.com/archives/C027KKE4BCZ). For the most up-to-date and detailed information on building Java connectors with the Bulk CDK, it would be best to consult the latest Airbyte documentation or reach out to the Airbyte community directly.
