# Data Pipeline APIs

Load large volumes of data into GridGain 9 with the Data Streamer API, including backpressure handling and referential integrity.

Load data at high throughput with the Data Streamer API. Complete [Distributed SQL Foundations](/docs/gridgain/gridgain-9/gridgain9-get-started/learning-paths/distributed-sql-foundations.md) first, and read [Schema Design for Distributed SQL](/docs/gridgain/gridgain-9/gridgain9-get-started/learning-paths/schema-design-for-distributed-sql.md) if you want to understand why colocated writes matter for ingestion.
