DataJoint for Python is a framework for scientific workflow management based on relational principles. DataJoint is built on the foundation of the relational data model and prescribes a consistent method for organizing, populating, computing, and querying data.

DataJoint for Python

DataJoint is a framework for scientific data pipelines based on the Relational Workflow Model — a paradigm where your database schema is an executable specification of your workflow.

• Tables represent workflow steps — Each table is a step in your pipeline
• Foreign keys encode dependencies — Parent tables must be populated before child tables
• Computations are declarative — Define what to compute; DataJoint handles when
• Results are immutable — Full lineage and reproducibility
