# DBND
DBND an open source framework for building and tracking data pipelines. DBND is used for processes ranging from data ingestion, preparation, machine learning model training and production.
DBND includes a Python library, set of APIs, and CLI that enables you to collect metadata from your workflows, create a system of record for runs, and easily orchestrate complex processes.
DBND simplifies the process of building and running data pipelines
from dbnd import task
```python
from dbnd import task
@task
def say_hello(name: str = "databand.ai") -> str:
value = "Hello %s!" % name
return value
```
And makes it easy to track your critical pipeline metadata
```python
from dbnd import log_metric, log_dataframe
log_dataframe("my_dataset", my_dataset)
log_metric("r2", r2)
```
## Getting Started
See our [documentation](https://dbnd.readme.io/) with examples and quickstart guides to get up and running with DBND.
## The Latest and Greatest
For using DBND, we recommend that you work with a virtual environment like [Virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/) or [Conda](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/). Update to the latest and greatest:
