Tecton's low-latency streaming pipelines automate the process of transforming data from streaming sources into fresh features for real-time machine learning models, eliminating the need to build custom pipelines and reducing deployment timelines by weeks or months. These pipelines provide sub-second feature freshness, ensure enterprise-grade uptime, latency, and throughput, combine batch and streaming data to backfill features, and efficiently process time window aggregations at scale. By contrast, conventional custom streaming pipelines often require significant lead times, ongoing pipeline management, and plumbing, resulting in higher costs and reduced prediction accuracy due to training / serving skew.
