Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Limited integrations with non-Python tools and platforms

   Primary support is for Python-based ecosystems, limited out-of-the-box connectors for other languages or frameworks

2. 02

   Complex setup process

   Requires multiple services to be configured and running (metadata service, ingestion workflows), documentation lacks step-by-step guides for common scenarios
