# DataJoint for Python

DataJoint is a framework for scientific data pipelines based on the **Relational Workflow Model** — a paradigm where your database schema is an executable specification of your workflow.

- **Tables represent workflow steps** — Each table is a step in your pipeline

- **Foreign keys encode dependencies** — Parent tables must be populated before child tables

- **Computations are declarative** — Define *what* to compute; DataJoint handles *when*

- **Results are immutable** — Full provenance and reproducibility

**Documentation:** https://docs.datajoint.com

> **📘 Upgrading from legacy DataJoint (pre-2.0)?**

> See the **[Migration Guide](https://docs.datajoint.com/how-to/migrate-to-v20/)** for a step-by-step upgrade path.
