Volt Active Data is a sophisticated data platform designed to streamline your entire technology stack, enhancing speed and cost-effectiveness, enabling applications and businesses to effortlessly scale in alignment with the extremely low latency service level agreements (SLAs) demanded by 5G, IoT, edge computing, and future innovations. It is tailored to complement your current big data assets, including NoSQL, Hadoop, Kubernetes, Kafka, and conventional databases or data warehouses, as it replaces the multiple layers usually necessary for making contextual decisions on streaming data with a singular, cohesive layer that facilitates ingestion to action in under 10 milliseconds. The digital landscape is inundated with data that is generated, stored, often overlooked, and ultimately discarded. "Active Data" refers to the information that requires immediate action for businesses to derive value from it. Numerous traditional and NoSQL data storage solutions are available for managing such data; however, there exists also a category of data that can be monetized, provided that swift action is taken to 'influence the moment' before the opportunity slips away. By harnessing the capabilities of Volt Active Data, organizations can ensure they are not merely collecting data but effectively leveraging it for real-time decision-making and strategic advantage.
