London, March 24th: KX has launched KX Insights™, a cloud-first platform for streaming analytics that fully leverages the benefits of cloud architecture natively to deliver fast, scalable real-time data insights without the added burden of infrastructure, complicated upgrades or the need to optimize for different cloud environments.

This enables organisations to rapidly scale up their real-time decision-making capabilities and implement an operating model of continuous actionable business intelligence.

Findings from independent research commissioned by KX indicate that businesses plan to increase investment in real-time data management and analytics systems over the next three years.  The growth is also reflected in Markets and Markets forecast for streaming analytics which shows compound annual growth of 28% from 2019 to 2024 reaching nearly $35 billion.
