How to Enable Sub-300 Millisecond Real-Time Mode in Delta Live Tables (DLT)

Hi folks,

During the recent Data + AI Summit, there was a mention of a new real-time streaming mode in Delta Live Tables (DLT) that enables sub-300 millisecond latency. This sounds really promising!

Could someone please guide me on:

  • How do we enable this new real-time mode in DLT?

  • Is it different from using pipelines .trigger. interval = "1 second" or is there a new streaming engine involved?

Hi @surajitDE ,

Just checking, were you referring to this session: Real-Time Mode Technical Deep Dive?

For anyone who missed it during the Summit, the recording is now available to watch.

Real-time mode, right now, is in private preview. Reach out to your account team for enablement.

It's separate from pipelines.trigger.interval. The engine is the same, just a different mode within it.
