Addressing these changes or providing ongoing maintenance is expensive. This current study investigates the necessity of having the ability to evolve within pipeline frameworks. This paper describes evolution as a two-step process involving self-awareness and self-adaptation. Additionally, a conceptual requirements model is introduced, which includes criteria for self-awareness and self-adaptation, as well as addressing the aspects of data, operators, pipelines, and the environment. The absence of these capabilities in current frameworks highlights a significant deficiency. Addressing this deficiency would be a major benefit for both practitioners and researchers. This study proposes and establishes the groundwork for a framework capable of managing evolutionary changes. }, }
