This session explores how modern data streaming technologies move information across the grid, from smart meter to control room, and what that means for reliability, cost, and speed of decision-making. Through live demonstrations and a practical decision framework, attendees will leave with a clear way to think about choosing the right data architecture for their own challenges.
