Data flows through Prequel Import in roughly the following sequence:
- Source - The origin of your provider’s data (e.g., a database, data warehouse, object storage, or other data platform)
- Dataset - The cached table or query for the data to be synced
- Stream - The loading pipeline that batches, maps, and delivers data to the target destination
- Destination - The target endpoint where processed data is delivered (API or Kafka topic)
Providers
Prequel Import is built with multi-tenancy in mind. Sources, Datasets, and Streams must all be associated with a Provider. To learn more about multi-tenancy and the Provider concept, see the Provider guide.
