Tim Swast commented on AIRFLOW-1101:
------------------------------------
DAGs appears more often than pipelines, so it probably makes sense to
standardize on that. There is even a DAGs section in Concepts.
Workflows also appears quite often and interchangably with "pipelines"
> Docs use the term "Pipelines" instead of DAGs

> Key: AIRFLOW-1101
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1101
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Andrew Chen
> Priority: Major
>
> It's a bit confusing to use the words "DAGs" and "pipelines" interchangeably
> in the documentation. Here are a couple examples where it is especially
> confusing.
> https://airflow.incubator.apache.org/configuration.html#connections
> "The pipeline code you will author will reference the ‘conn_id’ of the
> Connection objects."
> "Connections in Airflow pipelines can be created using environment variables."
> https://airflow.incubator.apache.org/configuration.html#scaling-out-with-celery
> "If all your boxes have a common mount point, having your pipelines files
> shared there should work as well"
