### AI overview

Redpanda Connect introduces Apache 2.0-licensed dynamic plugins in Beta with version 4.56.0. Plugins can be loaded at runtime as external executables that communicate with the main process through gRPC over Unix sockets, enabling plugin development in Go and Python. Official SDKs support both languages, while native Go plugins remain the preferred option for performance-critical workloads.

### Source excerpt

Redpanda Connect dynamic plugins framework allows you to create and load plugins at runtime, opening up a world of new integration possibilities beyond Go.
