@kapa.ai is there a version difference bteween airbyte oss and airbyte cloud

Yes, there can be version differences between Airbyte OSS (Open Source) and Airbyte Cloud. Here are the key points to understand: 1. Connector Versions: Airbyte Cloud typically has the latest versions of connectors automatically available, while in Airbyte OSS, you may need to manually update to the latest versions. 2. Platform Updates: Airbyte Cloud is automatically updated with the latest features and improvements, whereas Airbyte OSS requires manual updates to get the newest platform version. 3. Feature Availability: Some features may be available in Airbyte Cloud before they are released in Airbyte OSS. For example, OAuth support for connectors was initially only available in Airbyte Cloud. 4. Update Process: In Airbyte Cloud, minor and patch updates are applied automatically, while major updates are scheduled with advance notice. In Airbyte OSS, all updates (major, minor, and patch) are opt-in and require manual intervention. 5. Versioning Approach: Both Airbyte OSS and Cloud generally follow semantic versioning (Major.Minor.Patch), but the exact version numbers may differ at any given time. It's important to note that while there can be differences, Airbyte aims to maintain compatibility and feature parity between OSS and Cloud versions as much as possible.
