The 13 streaming icons in Data Engineering, described

A chevron dropping into the hole in a row — backfilling the data a pipeline missed.

Backpressure — the far end saying slow down, a push-back when it is full.

CDC — change data capture, every change streamed out as it happens.

Table rows with a lightning bolt beside them — change data capture streaming every edit.

A consumer — the subscriber that takes messages off the queue.

Event streamevent-stream

An event stream — events arriving one after another in an append-only log.

Message queuemessage-queue

A message queue — messages waiting their turn in a first-in, first-out backlog.

An offset — how far into a stream a consumer has read, the cursor position.

Priority queuepriority-queue

A priority queue — a queue where urgent items go first, ordered ahead of the rest.

Producerproducer

A producer — the writer that puts messages on the queue for consumers to take.

Streamstream

A stream — data or tokens arriving continuously in real time rather than in batches.

Stream jobstream-job

A stream job — always running and never done, continuous processing of live data.

Tombstonetombstone

A row marked with an X among live rows — a tombstone record standing in for a deleted row.

In code, each is one import — import { BackfillData } from "@iconmind/react/icons/backfill-data" — and the same name in Vue, Svelte, Solid, Preact, React Native, Astro, Blade and Flutter.
