Just In Time: How Streaming Architectures Enable Business
Broadcast Date: March 20th, 2025 at 3 PM ET
In an era where real-time decision-making is a serious competitive advantage, streaming-first architectures are revolutionizing how organizations process and act on data. Unlike traditional batch-oriented systems, streaming platforms like Apache Kafka, Redpanda, Apache Flink, and Apache Pulsar enable continuous data ingestion, transformation, and analysis at scale.
These technologies empower businesses to break free from the limitations of periodic data updates, unlocking the ability to react instantly to events, personalize customer experiences in real-time, and drive automation with high-velocity insights. By decoupling producers and consumers through scalable, event-driven pipelines, streaming-first architectures not only enhance system resilience but also pave the way for a more agile, intelligence-driven enterprise. Register for this episode of DM Radio to learn how today’s innovators are leveraging this rapidly evolving discipline.
