Data transmission is the continuous flow of information in real time and the basis of the software model of event-based architecture. Modern applications can use data transmission to enable data processing, storage, and analysis.

For example, social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter offer live streaming services, allowing news publishers around the world to connect directly to the right audiences, as well as to a much wider range of audiences than they would have reached otherwise. The large, fast-moving data sets that can be sources of data transmission are as varied as financial transactions, data from Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, logistics operations, retail orders or patient monitoring in hospitals.
