09/25/2026, 7:52 AMsource-mssql) does already have the technical prerequisites for faster sync speed (speed mode) implemented at the connector level:
1. Declared IPC Support in Metadata:
The connector definition for source-mssql includes the necessary connectorIPCOptions block enabling socket-based data transfer [Airbyte metadata.yaml]connectorIPCOptions
dataChannel:
version: "0.0.2"
supportedSerialization: ["JSONL", "PROTOBUF"]
supportedTransport: ["SOCKET", "STDIO"]
2. Socket Transport / Concurrency Handling in Code:
The configuration code specifically accounts for running in "speed mode" over Unix domain sockets rather than legacy STDIO [MsSqlServerSourceConfiguration.kt]:// If maxConcurrency is set, we use it.
// Otherwise, we use the number of socket paths provided for speed mode
// Or 1 for legacy mode
maxConcurrency =
when (DataChannelMedium.valueOf(dataChannelMedium)) {
DataChannelMedium.STDIO -> maxConcurrency ?: 1
DataChannelMedium.SOCKET -> maxConcurrency ?: socketPaths.size
}
Status for MSSQL to BigQuery • Connector readiness: Both source-mssql and destination BigQuery support the SOCKET transport IPC options [Airbyte metadata.yaml; feat(destination-mssql): add connectorIPCOptions to enable speed mode].
• Documentation status: The user-facing documentation page for "Faster sync speed" currently lists only MySQL under its officially supported sources [Faster sync speed].
The knowledge sources do not explicitly state whether the platform has fully activated/rolled out faster sync speed for MSSQL connections across all Cloud or Self-Managed environments yet, but the underlying connector-side implementation for speed mode is in place [Airbyte metadata.yaml; MsSqlServerSourceConfiguration.kt]. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button ℹ️ Tip: Mention @kapa.ai in the thread for follow-ups or DM the app for 1-to-1 help.
