The small vocabulary behind every pipeline

Messages, nodes, flows, tags — and how they compose. Four short reads that build the mental model you'll reuse on every page.

What happens inside a pipeline — how messages visit each node, gain new fields, recover from bad data, and keep running when code throws errors.

Build streaming pipelines with a fluent, chainable JavaScript DSL — pipeline logic as code, with dynamic options that adapt per message.

Proven node combinations for common streaming problems — noise-tolerant alarms, drift detection, adaptive diagnostics, and layered multi-stage flows.

Define what your data is — types, units, ranges, operational limits — so every dashboard, query engine, and storage schema speaks the same language.
