Challenge
Reports on current data, not last night's load.
When numbers arrive a day late, decisions do too. Real-time reporting means the report runs against the source the moment you open it.
- Query the source live
- No overnight load
- No ETL to babysit
The problem
Dashboards and reports refresh on a schedule — overnight, hourly, whenever the next batch lands. By the time a figure reaches a decision-maker, the underlying reality has already moved on.
Why traditional approaches struggle
Warehouses and data lakes have to be loaded before they can be queried. Every ETL step adds latency, every pipeline is another thing to schedule, monitor and reconcile — and the report is only ever as fresh as the last successful load.
Our dashboards refresh overnight, so every morning we steer on yesterday's numbers.
With Virtual Data Platform, the report queries the source the moment it opens — no batch window, no overnight load.
Decisions on what's true now, not what was true last night.
- Live query
- No ETL
The solution
How Virtual Data Platform addresses it
The platform queries the source system directly, at the moment of the request — no copy, no overnight load. Reports show the same numbers the source holds right now.
Queries run live against the source — no batch window to wait for.
No ETL pipelines to schedule, monitor or reconcile.
