In order to ingest data from an arbitrary source in a set of sources, a computer system accesses predefined configuration instructions. Then, the computer system generates a dynamic data-ingestion pipeline that is compatible with a Hadoop file system based on the predefined configuration instructions. This dynamic data-ingestion pipeline includes a modular arrangement of operators from a set of operators that includes: an extraction operator for extracting the data of interest from the source, a converter operator for transforming the data, and a quality-checker operator for checking the transformed data. Moreover, the computer system receives the data from the source. Next, the computer system processes the data using the dynamic data-ingestion pipeline as the data is received without storing the data in memory for the purpose of subsequent ingestion processing.
