Data Flow Diagramming

Data Flow Diagramming (DFD) is a visual method used to represent how data moves within a system. It shows the flow of information between different parts, such as processes, storage, and external entities like users or other systems. DFDs help clarify how data is received, processed, stored, and shared, making complex systems easier to understand and analyze. They are useful for designing, documenting, and improving processes by providing a clear picture of data interactions without focusing on specific technical details.
