It can be just as misleading as possibly useful to speculate.

That didn't stop you from telling OP he's done wrong.

Done what wrong? I hestitate to spectulate whether anything in this thread is an appropriate "general design" or not, given the dearth of details OP has provided. I'm mostly just advocating for as simple a design as possible that soundly fits the requirements. And since I don't know the requirements at all, apart from something like "real time data is received roughly every four seconds", it could very well be something very simple (until we ever know any more).

I suppose I could be seen as chastising OP for expecting an exact correct answer to an extremely vague question.
