So the dataset would be a local dataset (that gets frequently updated from the network) and the query is a local query that runs over that dataset?

I still am a bit confused about the use-case.

Oh, I still I'm starting to get it.

Is it if you have a large dataset locally stored (eg. in JS memory) that receives constant updates from a server? Are there any example apps that have this architecture?

Any kind of pivoting/roll-up over streaming updates (financial trading, IOT, transportation). A lot of streaming dashboards across a number of industries are effectively just pivot tables over ticking data.
