Quick start
Follow the First pipeline guide to evaluate LyftData, install the server, and run your first pipeline.
Welcome to the LyftData documentation hub. Whether you are standing up the platform for the first time, building production jobs, or hardening operations, these guides pair code samples with step-by-step playbooks to get you moving quickly.
From install to an interesting data flow
Section titled “From install to an interesting data flow”Follow one connected operator path:
- Install, sign in, and run your first job.
- Attach an MCP client and make a safe first read.
- Author and publish a workflow.
- Choose routing, transport, placement, replicas, and ownership.
- Plan, apply, and collect runtime evidence.
- Prove clone fan-out with exact synthetic counts.
The MCP and Deployments guides target LyftData 3.0.0-beta.5 and call out edition or evidence boundaries where they apply.
Install & configure
Plan deployments with the installation guide and tune settings in the configuration reference.
Build jobs
Design resilient pipelines with the Build overview, and when you are ready, follow the production pipeline guide for end-to-end deployment.
Product integrations
Connect to major data sources and sinks via the integrations catalog.
Operate & scale
Keep clusters healthy with the daily operations playbook, then dive into monitoring, backup, and scaling runbooks.
AI & MCP
Attach a verified client with the MCP quickstart, then author jobs or workflows through explicit preview and write gates.
Workflows & fan-out
Build multi-job systems with Workflows, choose routing and fan-out, and prove the result with deterministic tutorials.
Reference library
Deep-dive into Lua scripting, variable expansion, and other reference material when you need precise answers.
