Sample Pipelines

Control Hub provides sample pipelines that you can use to learn about pipeline design or as a basis for building your own pipelines.

In the Sample Pipelines view, you can view a sample pipeline to explore how the pipeline and stages are configured. You can also duplicate the pipeline to use it as the basis for custom pipeline development. Click Build > Sample Pipelines in the Navigation panel to view the sample pipelines. Click the name of a sample pipeline to open the pipeline in the pipeline canvas and explore how the pipeline and stages are configured. You can also create a new pipeline from the sample pipeline to use the sample as the basis for custom pipeline development.

Each sample pipeline has an associated tutorial that explains the processing that the pipeline performs. Each pipeline provides the link to its tutorial in the pipeline description.

There are two types of sample pipelines:
System sample pipelines
System sample pipelines are pipelines provided with Control Hub. You can use system sample pipelines to create new pipelines. Or while viewing a system sample pipeline, you can duplicate the sample to use it as the basis for building your own pipeline.

System administrators manage system sample pipelines. By default, system samples include Data Collector, Transformer, and Data Collector Edge sample pipelines. Administrators can edit the included system samples, create new system samples, and configure another organization to manage the system samples. For more information, see System Sample Pipelines.

You cannot create new system sample pipelines or edit or delete existing system sample pipelines.

User-defined sample pipelines
User-defined sample pipelines are pipelines that you can create, edit, and delete. You can assign a pipeline the templates label to create a user-defined sample pipeline. Users with read access to a published sample pipeline can create a new pipeline from the user-defined sample. For more information, see Creating User-Defined Sample Pipelines.
Tip: StreamSets provides additional pipeline design tutorials on Github. You can also find a terrific set of short how-to's on the StreamSets YouTube channel.
