I am a newcomer in the field (must be obvious from the question), and have one basic doubt.
Since data streams are continuous and one time, and DBMS is for storing , managing and retrieving persistent and discrete data, why do we need a DBMS for data streams ? Why can't we take the incoming streams, perform operations on it and send out the results ? Thanks. Received on Thu Oct 05 2006 - 21:10:47 CEST
