Thanks for your response @ShreevaniRao - I'm trying to solidify my understanding of DLT pipelines, hence the follow-up questions. As far as I can comprehend, DLT pipeline would break if the source table is changed, may be a schema change or some alterations after from appending the data. If you haven't made those alter changes, the DLT pipeline would simply check if any new data is present or now, if yes, the incremental data is processed, if not, 0 records in the dependent table are populated.

Cheers!
