Sensors, the three V\u2019s of Big Data (volume, velocity, and variety), and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/blog\/the-impact-of-genai-on-data-management-predictions-from-gartner\/\">AI<\/a> facilitate real-time information transmission through data streaming. However, its implementation and management in organizations poses significant challenges in terms of technology, security, cost, and regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n<p>What is data streaming? How does it facilitate informed decision-making? And what challenges do organizations face when implementing it?<\/p>\n<h2>What is Data Streaming?<\/h2>\n<p>Data streaming refers to the continuous process of transmitting, analyzing, and processing data as it is generated. This approach enables organizations to analyze data in real-time, enabling more responsive, immediate, decision-making as well as underpinning new applications, especially in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/glossary\/internet-of-things-iot\/\">IoT<\/a>, online media, and live data analysis.<\/p>\n<p>It is important not to confuse &#8220;data streaming&#8221; and &#8220;stream computing&#8221;. The former involves continuous data collection, while the latter entails continuous data processing.<\/p>\n<h2>Data Streaming: A Key Asset for Enhanced Decision-making within Ecosystems<\/h2>\n<p>Data streaming allows organizations and individuals to make better decisions based on real-time information.<\/p>\n<h3>Diverse Applications of Data Streaming in Enterprises<\/h3>\n<p>Data streaming provides companies operating in complex and fast-changing markets with significant business advantages. Here are three common use cases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Financial institutions<\/strong>: Stock prices change every fraction of a second based on investor behavior. Through continuous data streams, investors can time when they buy and sell to maximize profitability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Manufacturing<\/strong>: Sensors on industrial machines generate real-time data &#8211; streaming this information enables maintenance teams to be immediately alerted to any problems, allowing them to fix them faster.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cybersecurity<\/strong>: Website or application logs can detect and prevent intrusion attempts..<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Data streaming is highly strategic across various industries. Therefore, it is crucial for organizations to establish a robust technology infrastructure and strong <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/blog\/what-is-data-governance-and-why-is-it-an-essential-foundation-for-data-democratization\/\">data governance<\/a> to address security, cost, and regulatory compliance challenges.<\/p>\n<h2>Prerequisites for Implementing Data Streaming in an Organization<\/h2>\n<p>Successful implementation of a data streaming strategy requires:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Robust technology infrastructure<\/strong>: A solid tech stack, containing elements such as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/blog\/data-lake-data-warehouse-best-option-to-deliver-value\/\">data lake or data warehouse<\/a> capable of storing all data, efficient tools to automate the data process, and a secure information system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-quality data<\/strong>: Before sharing data continuously, ensure the disseminated information is reliable, relevant, and up-to-date.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Security protocols<\/strong>: Defining access rights based on user profiles and the nature of the data.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Regulatory compliance<\/strong>: To comply with regulations like GDPR, organizations need to anonymize personal data.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expertise within teams<\/strong>: To interpret real-time data, organizations need to be able to access the right skills.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sufficient budget<\/strong>: Especially to cover storage costs as data volumes grow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Publishing Real-time Data via a Data Portal<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/glossary\/internal-data-portal\/\">Data portals<\/a> enable organizations to share their data, in real-time, internally or externally with partners, employees and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>Huwise offers data flow integration functionalities via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/glossary\/api-application-programming-interface\/\">APIs<\/a> and over 80 connectors, along with real-time data publishing features.<\/p>\n<p>Discover how to share your data through a data portal in our Ebook.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<p><!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee\" class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\"><span id=\"hs-cta-0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee\" class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee\"><!-- [if lte IE 8]>\n\n\n<div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div>\n\n\n<![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/2041226\/0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"hs-cta-img-0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" style=\"border-width: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/2041226\/0e49dffc-8a37-49e3-9cab-bb2cf00834ee.png\" alt=\"Ebook -
