Describe the life cycle of a query in a data pipeline

[Evgenii]

Hi, @Thodeti Surekha 

I wanted to clarify - how it's linked with Atlassian? You want to know about Atlassian query pipelines?

If your question is abstract - here is very basic answer, about how queries work. You can ask any AI about it:

Here's what happens to a query, in plain words:

1. It arrives — you ask for some data, and the system receives your request.
2. It gets checked — the system makes sure the request makes sense and that you're allowed to ask for it.
3. A plan is made — it figures out the fastest way to get what you asked for.
4. The work is split up — the job is divided so several machines can handle it at once.
5. It runs — the data gets pulled, filtered, and combined. If something fails, that part is retried.
6. The result is saved — the finished data is written out where it's needed.
7. It's logged and finished — the system records that the job is done, and the next step can begin.

That's the whole journey: ask → check → plan → split → run → save → done.
