+# "Real-Time" Events
+
+## Defining "Real-Time" Glean Events
+
+"Real-Time" in the context of [Glean events](../../../reference/metrics/event.md) directly relates to configuring the Glean SDK to send each event in an ["events" ping](../../pings/events.md) as soon as it is recorded.
+This minimizes the time between instrumentation and reporting, but doesn't describe how quickly received data is made available for querying.
+
+## Configuring Glean For "Real-Time" Events
+
+Glean "events" ping submission can either be configured at [initialization](../../../reference/general/initializing.md) or through [Server Knobs](../../../user/server-knobs/other/max-events.md).
+
+Setting the maximum event threshold to a value of `1` will configure the Glean SDK to submit an "events" ping for every event recorded.
+
+## Considerations
+
+### What "Real-Time" Glean Events Are _Not_
+
+Configuring the Glean SDK to submit events as soon as they are recorded does not mean to imply that the event data is available for analysis in
+real time. There are networks to traverse, ingestion pipelines, etl, etc. that are all factors to keep in mind when considering how soon the data
+is available for analysis purposes. This documentation only purports to cover configuring the Glean SDK to send the data in a real-time fashion and
+does not make any assumptions about the analysis of data in real-time.
+
+### More Network Requests
+
+For every event recorded, a network request will be generated when the event is submitted for ingestion. By default, the Glean SDK batches up to
+500 events per "events" ping, so this has the potential to generate up to 500 times as many network requests than the current default.
+
+### More Ingestion Endpoint Traffic
+
+As a result of the increased network requests, the ingestion endpoint will need to handle this additional traffic. This increases the load
+of all the processing steps that are involved with ingesting event data from an application.
+
+### Storage Space
+
+Typically the raw dataset for Glean events contains 1-500 events in a single row of the database. This row also includes metadata such as
+information about the client application and the ping itself. With only a single event per "events" ping, the replication of this metadata
+across the database will use additional space to house this repeated information that should rarely if ever change between events
