When it says MotherDuck is in beta, how beta are we talkin'? We are really liking them at the moment for warehousing.

The MotherDuck data source being "beta" in GoodData means it is more mature than an experimental feature but is still under active development. The official guidance is clear: do not use it in your production environment. [MotherDuck Data Source] For more context on what "beta" means in GoodData's terminology, beta features are described as features that "you can test and explore" but are not yet recommended for production use. This contrasts with "experimental" features, which are even earlier-stage concepts that may evolve significantly or be discontinued entirely. [Early Access Features] So in short: beta = usable for testing and exploration, but not production-ready. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button â„šī¸ Tip: Mention @kapa.ai in the thread for follow-ups. 👀 Our Support team monitors all messages and will jump in if needed.

Mostly wondering if there are any security-related issues being resolved or if it's just some functional stuff that's missing.

Hi Aaron. As said by our AI above, MotherDuck data source is currently a beta feature and is still under active development. It can contain either functional gaps and security issues, so we do not recommend you to use it in your production environment.
