Software AG, IBM, Informatica, SAP & Tibco are the leader in 'Forrester Wave™: Big Data Streaming Analytics Platforms, Q3 2014'.
Business won’t wait. That is truer today than ever before because of the white-water flow of data from innumerable real-time data sources. Market data, clickstream, mobile devices, sensors, and even good old fashioned transactions may contain valuable, but perishable insights. Perishable because the insights are only valuable if you can detect and act on them right now. That’s where streaming analytics platforms can help. Forrester defines streaming analytics platform as:
Software that can filter, aggregate, enrich, and analyze a high throughput of data from multiple disparate live data sources and in any data format to identify simple and complex patterns to visualize business in real-time, detect urgent situations, and automate immediate actions.
