Summary form only given. Information is power. Speed is king. Real-time enterprise presents critical winning edges for modern companies to thrive in the 21st century new economy. While building real-time enterprise capabilities can be a daunting, time-consuming, and resource-draining task, leveraging emerging platform technologies will shorten the learning curve and lead to speedier, more cost efficient, deployments.
