Value stream vs stream?

[RajatBain]

Can anyone please explain me the differences and when to use which one with example? I have read few articles on this topic but still its not clear to me. I would request you to give an use case scenario. Thanks.

We have TWX tutorials video to introduce value streams / streams:

• ThingWorx Tutorials: Introduction to Value Streams
• ThingWorx Tutorials: Introduction to Streams

In summary:

• Value stream is generally used to record one fast-changing data of one thing, such as the speed of the machine, humidity, temperature, etc.

• Streams are used when you want to combine a specific set of data over time from different sources. And if you are looking to record data over time paired with other relevant data points.
