Load and DOMContentLoaded are internal browser events—your users have no idea what a Load time even is. Equally, both DOMContentLoaded and Load aren’t just meaningless browser events, and once you understand what they actually signify, you can get some real insights as to your site’s runtime behaviour from each of them. That’s late!

Stream processing is used to query a continuous stream of data and immediately process events in that stream. Ideally, your stream is processing events in subseconds as they occur. To keep up, we require real-time analytics (RTA), which provides the immediacy that every user of data today expects and is based on stream processing.
