Meltano Timeline

Meltano started in 2018 as an open source tool built for GitLab's data and analytics team. There was a need for an end-to-end data platform built around open source components and DevOps principles, thus Meltano was born.

Since then, we've spun out into our own company to carry this mission forward. This page serves as a living timeline of our history.
