[Roadmap] File Transfers

[nataliekwong]

Support transferring unstructured text data, non-text data and compressed files. File transfers allow you to copy raw files in Airbyte without parsing their contents. Bits are copied into the destination exactly as they appeared in the source. This is recommended for use with unstructured text data, non-text and compressed files.

Now available for moving data from the "SFTP Bulk" source to the "S3" destination. We currently support copying files up to 1GB in size. This is an entirely new way of moving data through Airbyte, as all pre-existing data movement methods involved parsing individual records. This is now available in v1.2.0.
