The core of all AI, business intelligence, and applications is data – various bits and bytes that come in all different formats. Only when we sift through this data, reason with it and build on top of it in real-time does it give way to vast amounts of information and knowledge.

Real-time insights are key to the way we live our lives today; the way we entertain ourselves; the way we listen to music; the way we order groceries. Real-time insights keep your BI tools fresh, and they ensure you never miss a fraudulent payment. The fact of the matter is this: every company is a technology company, and every technology company is a data company. And ultimately, every data company needs to reason and act on real-time data to elevate human lives, and keep the world moving.
