How BoltPipeline Works
A simple, repeatable flow that separates authoring fromimplementation — so teams move faster without sacrificing trust.
BoltPipeline turns SQL business logic into certified, production-ready data pipelines — safely, transparently, and inside your environment.
You focus on what the data should represent. BoltPipeline takes responsibility for how pipelines are built, validated, and governed.
Executive Summary
BoltPipeline turns SQL business logic into certified, production-ready data pipelines. Teams write SQL. BoltPipeline automatically validates correctness, detects drift, generates executable artifacts, and enforces governance —without moving data or introducing new DSLs.
Customers deploy and operate pipelines in their own environment, using their existing schedulers and infrastructure, while BoltPipeline provides certification, lineage, and continuous safety.
The Big Picture
BoltPipeline follows a simple, repeatable flow designed to match how real data teams work — without introducing new languages, runtimes, or fragile glue code.
Step 1
Author in SQL
Teams express business logic and transformations in plain SQL — the source of truth.
Step 2
Build & Certify Pipelines
BoltPipeline analyzes intent, validates safety, and generates certified pipeline artifacts.
Step 3
Deploy & Monitor in Your Environment
Teams deploy and run pipelines in their own environment with full ownership and visibility.
No proprietary DSLs. No YAML sprawl. No black-box execution. Just SQL — backed by automation.
Step 1
Author: Express Business Logic in SQL
BoltPipeline starts where your team already is: SQL. Engineers and analysts describe what the data should mean, not how to wire pipelines by hand.
- Write plain SQL (.sql) files — no DSLs, no YAML-heavy configs
- Optional hints or directives can express intent (e.g. materialization, SCD behavior)
- AI assistance (optional) can help draft or refine SQL safely
- SQL remains the single source of truth
Step 2
Analyze, Validate & Generate (Shift Left)
This is where BoltPipeline does the heavy lifting.
The platform analyzes SQL intent, validates correctness, and surfaces issues before anything ships. When something fails, explainers show why — not just that it did.
The output is a set of certified artifacts: executable SQL, validation results, lineage, profiles, and audit metadata — portable and customer-owned.
- Schema, type, and contract compatibility checks
- Join correctness and relationship safety
- Column profiling and baseline establishment
- Distribution and drift awareness
- Dependency analysis and graph safety
- Generation of certified, executable pipeline artifacts
Step 3
Deploy & Operate in Your Environment
BoltPipeline does not replace your runtime.
You deploy and operate pipelines where your data lives. BoltPipeline provides visibility, safety signals, and governance context— without taking control away from your team.
- Run pipelines directly inside your database or via your orchestrator
- No data movement outside your boundary
- Artifacts integrate with Airflow, CI/CD, and existing tooling
- Drift detection and impact awareness continue after deploy
- You own runtime, scheduling, and execution decisions

Business Outcomes
- 🚀 Speed: Weeks → hours to production-ready pipelines
- 🛡️ Trust: Certification gates, lineage, and explainers built in
- 🔄 Flexibility: SQL-first, portable artifacts, no lock-in
- 💸 Cost: In-database execution, lean infrastructure, fewer incidents
- 📜 Compliance: Data stays in boundary with audit-ready evidence
BoltPipeline is designed to reduce pipeline failures, review cycles, and operational overhead — while giving leadership confidence that data products are governed, explainable, and safe to scale.
