Why do we need a DBMS for data streams ?

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.
