In today's fast-paced data-driven world, accelerating data feedback loops is crucial for gaining a competitive edge through rapid idea testing, filtering, and reacting to changes. To achieve this, organizations must transition from legacy database models that rely on batch loading and limit analytic functionality to hybrid database models that enable simultaneous processing and analysis of large datasets. This requires embracing emerging technologies like in-memory computing and distributed architectures optimized for real-time ingestion and exploration.
