A Snowflake hook? An OpenAI sensor? The Registry helps you find, compare, and configure the right components for your data pipelines — without digging through docs or PyPI pages. + + + +## By the Numbers + +| | | +|---|---| +| **99** | Official providers | +| **1,614** | Modules (operators, hooks, sensors, triggers, transfers, and more) | +| **329M+** | Monthly PyPI downloads across all providers | +| **125+** | Integrations with cloud platforms, databases, ML tools, and messaging services | + +## Search Everything + +Hit **Cmd+K** from any page and start typing. Results show up instantly, grouped by Providers and Modules, with type badges so you can tell a hook from an operator at a glance. + + + +## Provider Pages + +Each provider gets a dedicated page with everything in one place: install command with copy-to-clipboard, version selector, extras dropdown, compatibility info, connection types, and the full module listing organized by type. + + + +The Amazon provider, for example, has **372 modules** across operators, hooks, sensors, triggers, transfers, and more. Module type tabs let you filter to exactly what you're looking for, and a category sidebar groups modules by AWS service (S3, Lambda, Glue, Step Functions, etc.). + +## Connection Builder + +Click any connection type badge on a provider page, fill in the fields, and the builder generates the connection in three formats — **URI**, **JSON**, and **Env Var** — ready to copy into your configuration. + + + +No more guessing URI encoding or JSON structure. + +## Explore by Category + +Not sure which provider you need? The **[Explore page](https://airflow.apache.org/registry/explore/)** organizes providers into categories: Cloud Platforms, Databases, Data Warehouses, Messaging & Notifications, AI & Machine Learning, Data Processing, and more. + + + +## Statistics + +The **[Stats page](https://airflow.apache.org/registry/stats/)** breaks down the ecosystem: **853 operators**, **300 hooks**, **164 triggers**, **157 sensors**, **83 transfers**, and more — plus top providers by downloads and module count. + + + +## JSON API + +Every piece of data in the Registry is available as structured JSON — providers, modules, parameters, connections, versions. An **[API Explorer](https://airflow.apache.org/registry/api-explorer/)** lets you browse all endpoints interactively. + + + +This makes the Registry accessible to IDE extensions, AI coding assistants, and automation tools. + +## Light & Dark Mode + +Full theme support with dark mode as the default. One click to switch. + + + +## Standing on Shoulders + +The Airflow Registry is a community-owned successor to the [Astronomer Registry](https://registry.astronomer.io), which [Astronomer](https://www.astronomer.io) and Josh Fell built and maintained for years as the go-to place to discover Airflow providers. Their work proved the value of a searchable provider catalog and shaped what this new registry is. Review Comment: This is cool (and of course I figured out that at least from the concept point of view, a lot of that comes from the registry of Astronomer. Question, however - is Astronomer going to stil Keep the registry for a while ? Or rather (providing that we figure out the way how to include 3rd-party providers in objective way and without endorsement etc.) - which I think we should be abke - the registry of Astronomer will redirect to here ? - because maybe it makes little sense in long-living blog to make a link to the registry, just mention it, and link to Astronomer's site. I would also add a thank you note to Astronomer from PMC for running the registry and for making all the efforts to contribute a community registry which we need so badly. Kudos to @josh-fell BTW.
