Store
As data streams in, it needs to be both saved for long-term analysis and made instantly available for real-time decisions. For time-critical operational data like machine status, production metrics, or quality parameters specialised databases store this information for rapid access and real-time analysis. Meanwhile, less time-sensitive information can be preserved for future analysis, business intelligence, and advanced applications.
