Descripción
The current implementation of the [DestinationStreamStateModel](https://github.com/airbytehq/PyAirbyte/blob/f7b88eba400d7aa768c8c370cfbac6f18dfc61c6/airbyte/caches/_state_backend.py#L68) assumes a one-to-one relationship between a [Source](https://github.com/airbytehq/PyAirbyte/blob/f7b88eba400d7aa768c8c370cfbac6f18dfc61c6/airbyte/sources/base.py#L52) name and a [Destination](https://github.com/airbytehq/PyAirbyte/blob/f7b88eba400d7aa768c8c370cfbac6f18dfc61c6/airbyte/destinations/base.py#L38) name. This is fine in principle, under the assumption that the Connection only has one instance of the Source type. However, this is not always the case, lets imagine we have multiple cases of a Google Sheets Source, for which we want to keep its state tracked via `state_cache` when writing to a destination. How can we achieve this?
In Airbyte, we achieve this by aliasing the Sources and Destinations:


By separating the ORM model to write based on the aliased Source and Destination/Cache names, we can support multiple types of Sources and Destinations and still hold cache for them.
