Search connectors for SP 2016
Does anyone know where to find a list of the connectors that are used by the search crawler in 2016? Technet has a list at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219746.aspx but it is for 2013. I think that this same list applies to 2016, but I can't find any confirmation of this.

In the cloud hybrid search section:
You index all of your crawled content, including on-premises content, to your search index in Office 365. You can set up the crawler in SharePoint Server 2016 to crawl the same content sources and use the same search connectors in Office SharePoint Server 2007, SharePoint Server 2010, and SharePoint Server 2013.
It sounds like you can use the same connectors across SP2007 - SP2016

Thanks, I thought I had seen that somewhere, but could not find it in the SP 2016 Search section of TechNet (which is where I expected it to be)
