datastream
Continuous information transmission
A datastream is a continuous flow of digital information transmitted over a network or between systems.
The term emphasizes data as ongoing sequence rather than discrete files: The sensor feeds a constant datastream to the monitoring station.
In science fiction, characters sometimes "jack into" datastreams, accessing raw information flow directly.
