A streaming database is designed to process large amounts of real-time streaming data, providing real-time insights and analysis. It is ideal for latency-critical applications such as real-time analytics, fraud detection, network monitoring, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Streaming databases differ from traditional databases in their processing approach and can be used alongside other data systems for streaming ingestion and streaming analytics. They also differ from OLTP and OLAP databases in terms of ACID compliance, data correctness, and query optimization.
