Azure Synapse Pipelines are built on which Azure service?

Azure Synapse Pipelines are built on Azure Data Factory. This integration allows users to create data workflows and orchestrate data processing across various services in a streamlined manner. Azure Data Factory is designed specifically for data integration, enabling the creation, management, and monitoring of data pipelines, which can efficiently move and transform data across different sources and destinations.

Once embedded into Azure Synapse, these pipelines allow for rich data analytics capabilities, making it possible to orchestrate complex data workflows that involve data ingestion, transformation, and movement within the Synapse environment. This relationship makes Azure Data Factory the backbone for the data pipeline capabilities within Azure Synapse, ensuring that data engineers can manage large volumes of data more effectively while leveraging the powerful computing resources and analytics capabilities of Azure Synapse.
