    Hi, LorenzoNieri 

    According to your description, you're using Power BI's ability to stream real-time data, right?

    Based on my research and analysis in the official documentation, Power BI's ability to stream real-time data shows in practice that streaming datasets and their accompanying streaming visuals are best suited for scenarios where latency between data push and visualization must be minimized. In addition, it's a best practice to push data in a format that can be visualized as-is, without any additional aggregations. Examples of as-is-ready data include temperature and precalculated averages.

    You can follow the best practices recommended in the official documentation to process and configure your streaming dataset refresh, because as far as I know, the ability to stream live processing data is already a feature in Power BI that minimizes latency between data push and visualization:
