Fabric RTI 101: What is Real-Time Intelligence?

This is the start of a new series of blog posts dedicated to Microsoft Fabric Real-Time Intelligence or RTI. I think RTI is an important aspect of Microsoft Fabric, yet it is currently underutilized. I hope to try to help change that.

So why, RTI ?

Let’s start with a simple idea. Real time intelligence (or RTI) is about shrinking the delay between when data is created and when you can act on it. In traditional systems, we’re often used to data being collected, stored, and only analyzed later, maybe overnight or even weekly. That’s fine for long term reporting, but it’s too slow for situations where immediate action matters.
