It doesn't have to be markdown files. Gatsby supports a wide range of data sources which is available to use in your templates via graphql. If your website is big and gets frequently updated with data from the backend triggering the builds, new content on the site can take few minutes to appear as the generator will need to build a static site (html/css/js files) which I assume is a problem for big publication sites.
