Abstract

Data in real time has transformed retail supply chain management and customer service. Retail real-time data integration, implementation, technology, and advantages are covered in this article. As consumer demands for immediacy and accuracy increase retail complexity, real-time data integration is essential to operational efficiency and customer pleasure.
Combine and analyze real-time POS, inventory, and customer interaction data. Retailers can react quickly, improve supply chains, and customize consumer experiences with this continuous information flow. Analytics, streaming, and cloud data warehousing provide real-time data integration. 

Live data integration employs streaming. Merchants can handle massive data sets in real time using Apache Kafka and Apache Flink. These systems swiftly evaluate data from several sources to deliver current information.
