Event streams

Event streams are continuous flows of data representing activities or occurrences within a system or environment, such as user actions, sensor readings, or transactions. They capture real-time information as it happens, allowing for immediate analysis, monitoring, or response. Think of it like a live news feed of events happening across a network or application, where each piece of data is an event that can be processed, stored, or acted upon instantly. Event streams enable organizations to gain timely insights, automate responses, and build reactive systems that adapt quickly to changing conditions.
