2. Related Art
Database management systems are typically configured to separate the process of storing data from accessing, manipulating, or using data stored in a database. More specifically, database management systems use a model in which data is first stored and indexed in a memory before subsequent querying and analysis. In general, database management systems may not be well suited for performing real-time processing and analyzing streaming data. In particular, database systems can be unable to store, index, and analyze large amounts of streaming data efficiently or in real-time.
