This allows selected tables to use two storage formats simultaneously: primary storage optimized for OLTP and secondary storage optimized for OLAP. The secondary storage layer asynchronously ingests updates from the transactional store, providing up-to-date analytics without interfering with transaction performance.<\/p>\n Read on for more<\/a><\/p>\n Available to all SmartAgent and SmartOffice customers, SmartAnalytics features an Interaction Explorer, a powerful way to search and track trends from customer communications, a self-service business intelligence functionality to custom tailor analysis to meet business needs, and real-time data insights that can be exported across the business.<\/p>\n Read on for more<\/a><\/p>\n The agents were debuted in Nashville on Tuesday at OneStream\u2019s annual\u00a0customer conference.
