Hi Luca, Cameleers,
naming in IT... from the top of my head

Pipe
Processor
Conduit
Channel
Funnel
Queue
Glue
Caravan or Karavan I guess :)

None of these are particularly excellent, though we should pick a name
that describes the best but also doesn't increase the ambiguity or
cause confusion for end users. E.g. Channel is a particularly bad name
as it's being used in Knative...
