In Adobe Experience Platform, data ingestion is the transportation of data from assorted sources to a storage medium where it can be accessed, used, and analyzed by an organization. Data ingestion in Experience Platform can be grouped into two main categories: **streaming ingestion** and **batch ingestion**.

Under streaming and batch ingestion are a number of different methods that you can use to ingest your data into Experience Platform. These methods include the use of a variety of **sources** and connecting to these sources to then bring data into Experience Platform.
