stream processing
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Senses: examples: text: The most obvious advantage of stream processing is its ability to move many analytical or reporting processes into real time.

In database terms, instead of running a query on data collected in the past, stream processing involves running data as it arrives through a query so the results are incrementally generated as a continuous operation.

Part of speech: noun
Senses: examples: text: Order streaming is a style of picking and warehouse management that exists in direct response to the growth of e-commerce and omnichannel supply chains.

Furthermore, order streamline enables the scalability of operations to meet strong peaks in picking and warehousing operations regardless of possible issues, like failing equipment or unavailability of workers.
