I am connecting TimeStream DB to Quicksight (using Direct Query Mode) to create Dashboards and Paginated Reports. The Dashboard and Paginated Reports will be embedded in a web application. My question is how I can achieve real-time visualization and reporting. Is it possible?

Hi @teja1  
if you use direct query, every time you refresh the dashboard you are querying the database. From an QS point of view it should be realtime.
