Summary

So far, we have learned how to create linked services, datasets, pipelines, and triggers. We learned how can we use multiple activities together in a pipeline. We got a fair understanding of variables and parameters in Synapse pipelines. Synapse has provided the option to use sample pipelines, but it's important to learn how to use these sample pipelines—therefore in this chapter, we also covered how we can start using these.

Synapse supports various data stores and various ways to transform your data, but we could only cover a couple of transformations in this chapter. However, now that you are comfortable with Synapse pipelines, it will be easy for you to add any activity to the pipeline as per your business requirements. You can go to http://bit.ly/transform-data-on-synapse if you want to learn more about any specific activity.

We will talk about a couple of other activities throughout the book that will give you more clarity on Synapse pipelines.
