Expert Panel: Driving Business Impact with Real-Time Data
Webinar Speaker: Bill Franks, Research Fellow
Date: Monday, August 31, 2026
Time: 9:00 a.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. ET
Real-time data has become a strategic differentiator for organizations to improve decision velocity, operational efficiency, and customer experiences. Business leaders, data scientists, and other users need easier capabilities for examining real-time data streams alongside historical data to uncover patterns and predictive insights. Organizations need data-rich applications and AI models that maximize the value of all types of near and true real-time data: structured data, events, sensor data, documents, media content, and much more.
Join this Expert Panel to discover how your enterprise can leverage streaming data, event-driven architectures, and data platforms that support in-memory analytics to act on insights the moment they are created. Of course, fast data is not valuable if the quality is poor. Panelists will discuss how to solve problems throughout data journeys to deliver full business value. Topics include:
- How to balance real-time streaming and responsiveness with data quality, governance, and scalability
- Real-time data pipeline best practices drawn from use cases in fraud detection, securities, personalization, predictive maintenance, and supply chain optimization
- Solution trends in data infrastructure, pipeline orchestration, and capabilities for examining real-time and historical data together to enable low-latency analytics and AI at scale
