DataHub can create connections to platforms that are in "read-only" mode, meaning that you will never be able to modify any content on the platform using that connection. This can be useful for adding additional guarantees that a particular platform will never be modified by DataHub during a migration.
Read-only connections cannot be configured globally; rather must be enabled per connection.
