What does data "Workflow" even mean? (3 examples)

Oct 29, 2025

When I talk to teams about their data architecture, an area that I like to focus on is workflow.

But when we say "workflow"...

What does that really mean?

 

It's an area that isn't just a specific tool or a line of code...

But more about a strategy and process in the middle of all the action.

It can also be a bit of a gray area.

But it's something that's incredibly important, especially for teams looking to migrate to a more modern approach.

 

So in this video are 3 examples of things that come to mind when I talk about "data workflow".

Whether you're looking to build or upgrade  something you have in place, it will help you think about ways to approach this topic.

Enjoy!
