Create a pipeline to define the processing stages needed to execute a query and index your files. In deepset Cloud, you create one pipeline file that contains two pipelines: the indexing pipeline and the query pipeline. To learn more, see About pipelines.

Pipeline Nodes

Nodes are the building blocks of a pipeline. You can organize them any way you want. You can also replace one node with another to tweak the search process. Here is a list of the nodes available in deepset Cloud: pipeline nodes.

Create a Pipeline

deepset Cloud currently supports two pipeline types: question answering and document retrieval.
You can create pipelines using a YAML editor or Jupyter Notebooks. Using the YAML editor is better if you already know what your pipeline should look like. Jupyter Notebooks is better if you need to experiment to find the right pipeline configuration.
