What is Pipeline?
It is a series of automatic steps through which data passes from a raw state until it reaches a processed result.
Overview
A pipeline is a production line where data enters at one end and exits as a meaningful result at the other end. At each step, data is cleaned, transformed or analyzed. This structure eliminates manual work, ensuring the process is repeatable and error-free.
How it works
The data source is determined, then the processing steps (such as cleaning, transformation) are defined. The system automatically performs these steps in order.
Where it is used
It is used in data processing processes, software distribution and artificial intelligence model training.
Commonly confused with
It should not be confused with just a database; A pipeline is a process that processes data, not a place to store it.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if the pipeline breaks?
The process may stall or produce incorrect data, so monitoring (observability) is very important.
Should it always be automatic?
Yes, automation lies at the core of the pipeline concept.
