Pipeline¶
A pipeline is a chain of steps that composes a sequential set of actions.
A pipeline is used with :
datasets, to read, transform and save data
continuous integration, where each check and packaging follows the previous one
processing, where each step is a separate process
The pipeline image is related to the assembly line, from factories.
