Open source data transformation engine to grow under vendor-neutral governance and support the next generation of data infrastructure
AMSTERDAM, March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe — The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization enabling mass innovation through open source, today announced the contribution of SQLMesh, an open source data transformation framework, to the Foundation by Fivetran.

As organizations process growing volumes of data across distributed systems and multiple warehouses, traditional transformation tools can struggle to support large-scale development workflows. SQLMesh helps data teams define, test, version, and deploy SQL-based data transformations with built-in reliability and automation, making complex transformation pipelines easier to manage and maintain across modern analytics environments.
“Data infrastructure underpins how modern systems are built and operated,” said Jim Zemlin, CEO at the Linux Foundation. “SQLMesh brings proven software engineering practices to the data layer, helping teams build more reliable and scalable pipelines. The Linux Foundation provides the neutral, trusted home to grow this critical part of the stack in the open, with the community driving what comes next.”
With initial support from Benzinga, CloudKitchens, Harness, Infinite Lambda, Jump AI, and Minerva, the project will advance a community-governed approach to developing and maintaining SQLMesh as part of the modern data stack.
“Modern data architectures benefit from open, community-driven foundations,” said Anjan Kundavaram, chief product officer at Fivetran. “As organizations scale analytics and AI initiatives, they need the ability to adopt best-fit technologies, manage complexity and evolve their data stacks over time. Contributing SQLMesh to the Linux Foundation supports a more collaborative path forward for the transformation layer…
