Components of HGrid247-3.5 DE Window

The HGrid247-3.5 Data Engineering (DE) Window provides the main workspace used to design, manage, and execute data processing workflows.
The interface contains several components that help users create ETL/ELT pipelines visually.

1. Operators of HGrid247-3.5 DE Workflow

Operators are individual processing units in a workflow that perform specific tasks or transformations on data.

• Source
  A Source is the starting operator of a workflow. It reads or ingests raw data from external systems or storage.
  Sources are responsible for bringing data into the processing pipeline.
  
• Assembly
  An Assembly is a data processing operator that performs specific transformations or operations on data.
  Assemblies are used to:
  • transform data
  • filter records
  • aggregate information
  • enrich datasets
  • perform intermediate processing
  Assemblies are placed between Source and Sink operators in the workflow.
• Sink
  A Sink is the final operator in a workflow where processed data is stored or delivered.
  The Sink represents the destination of the data pipeline.
  After the data reaches a Sink, the workflow process is considered complete.

2. HGrid247-3.5 DE workflow

An HGrid247-3.5 DE Workflow is a visual diagram that describes how data flows through the system.
The workflow illustrates the movement of data:

    Source → Assembly → Sink

A workflow may contain multiple sources, assemblies, and sinks depending on the complexity of the pipeline.

Workflow Rules

There are several structural rules for creating workflows in HGrid247:

• Every workflow must start with a Source.
• Every Source must be followed by an Assembly.
• Every Assembly must be followed by:
  • another Assembly, or
  • a Sink.
• Every Sink must be preceded by an Assembly.

These rules ensure that data processing pipelines are logically structured and executable.
