Data flows are visually designed data transformations in Azure Synapse Analytics. Data flows allow data engineers to develop data transformation logic without writing code. The resulting data flows are executed as activities within Azure Synapse Analytics pipelines that use scaled-out Apache Spark clusters. Data flow activities can be operationalized using existing Azure Synapse Analytics scheduling, control, flow, and monitoring capabilities.

Data flows provide an entirely visual experience with no coding required. Your data flows run on Synapse-managed execution clusters for scaled-out data processing. Azure Synapse Analytics handles all the code translation, path optimization, and execution of your data flow jobs.
