Azure Data Factory is one of the primary resources within the processing framework solution used for delivering both the execution of the orchestration pipelines (Grandparent, Parent, Child, Infant, Utilities) and used to deliver worker pipelines created as modules outside of the processing solution.

In the context of the processing framework Data Factory operates at the control flow level as one of the orchestrators available for a given solution. Data flow level transformtion operations are not handled within the framework. It is expected that dataset level tasks are delivered by the worker pipelines that this framework triggers.
