In a nutshell, a data pipeline is a distributed system. A data pipeline is a software which runs on hardware. The software is error-prone and hardware failures are inevitable. Every time data spikes - a phenomenon which will be not predictable in most cases - overall latency to process the data using data pipeline will go up.

A resilient system continues to operate successfully in the presence of failures. The system needs to maintain a safety margin that is capable of absorbing failure via defense in depth, and failure modes need to be prioritized to take care of the most likely and highest impact risks. The first technique is the most generally useful.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).
