What is a Data Pipeline?

A data pipeline is a set of processes and tools used to move data from one place to another — typically from where it’s captured to where it’s stored, analyzed, or visualized.

Why Data Pipelines matter to your business

A well-built data pipeline helps ensure that data flows smoothly and reliably between systems. This allows for accurate automation, timely reporting, and fewer manual errors.

Real-world example

Sales form submissions are automatically pushed through a data pipeline into a CRM, a reporting dashboard, and a backup database — without any manual handling.
