” These days the desire seems to be for near-real time analytics. I’m skeptical of the value of this. Often when analyzing data trends you don’t need to react right away, and your thinking improves when you give it time for a proper mulling. Reacting too quickly leads to a form of information panic, where you react badly to data that’s changing too rapidly to get a proper picture of what’s going on. “.
