Real-time analytics is important for data-driven applications. Ampool provides an active data store (ADS) that can ingest data in real-time, analyze it using various engines, and serve the results concurrently. This eliminates "data blackout periods" and enables applications to use up-to-date information. Ampool's ADS is powered by Apache Geode and has connectors for ingesting and processing data. It supports both transactional and analytical workloads in memory for low-latency.

3. Real-Time Enterprise
“Companies need to learn how to catch people or things in the act of
doing something and affect the outcome”
-Paul Maritz
Executive Chairman, Pivotal
The Real-Time Enterprise is an enterprise that competes by using up-to-date
information to progressively remove delays to the management and execution of
its critical business processes”
- Gartner
(https://www.gartner.com/doc/372176/gartner-definition-realtime-enterprise)
