- 6Case in point for being careful with the term "real-time": In my work, real-time means that there is a deadline on how fast the software must respond to an event. In some cases, that response time is measured in seconds, but failing to meet the deadline means that the product is considered defective/broken. A hard real-time requirement.Bart van Ingen Schenau– Bart van Ingen Schenau2024-04-19 07:13:44 +00:00Commented Apr 19, 2024 at 7:13

- Probably I was confusing these terms also because I heard many times about Kafka Streams real-time processing..bridgemnc– bridgemnc2024-04-20 06:11:23 +00:00Commented Apr 20, 2024 at 6:11
- 1I second @BartvanIngenSchenau 's comment. Real-time means whatever that individual thinks it means at that particular time. I've seen realtime mean exactly what you say, I've seen realtime mean "roughly runs as fast as the inputs come in" and anything inbetween.Cort Ammon– Cort Ammon2024-04-21 04:33:40 +00:00Commented Apr 21, 2024 at 4:33

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
