This page describes the various states and terms associated with pipelines and their significance.
In this article:
Terms
- Job: The action performed (operation) as part of a Pipeline. For instance, a Pipeline could have two separate jobs when it installs two different applications.
- Operation: The action the Pipeline performs. Installing an application is an operation.
- Pipeline: A chain of processes or functions. These processes happen one after another in stages.
- Run: One part of the Pipeline stage.
- Stage: Segments of the Pipeline. For example, you can target a small group of devices in Stage 1, and then a larger group in Stage 2.
- Target: The groups or devices that will be part of the Pipeline.
- Trigger: A prompt to force the execution of a pipeline stage. This could be manual (prompted by a user) or automatic (prompted as a result of successful criteria).
