Systems and methods are described for customizable data streams in a streaming data processing system. Routing criteria for the customizable data streams are defined by a user, an automated process, or any other process. The routing criteria can be defined using graphical controls. The streaming data processing system uses the routing criteria to determine data that should be used to populate a particular data stream. Further, processing pipelines are customized such that a particular processing pipeline can obtain data from a particular user defined data stream and write data to a particular user defined data stream. Data is routed through the user defined data streams and customized processing pipelines based on a data route. A data route for a set of data may include multiple user defined data streams and multiple processing pipelines. The data route can include a loop of processing pipelines and data streams.
