At the last meeting of the Event Processing Technical Society I enjoyed excellent discussions about event processing with engineers from BEA, who were very interested in CEP. Now, it comes as no surprise that BEA has entered the CEP space by unveiling the BEA Weblogic Event Server:
“Churchward said WebLogic Event [...]

In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 6), we discussed impact assessment in event processing applications. Today, we introduce process refinement - the feedback loop, resource management and work flow components of event processing architectures. Business process management (BPM) also is a part of process refinement, depicted in slide 13 of my [...]

Earlier on Yahoo! CEP-Interest we discussed events streams and event clouds in the context of POSETS. This discussion was in two parts; Part I, Clouds (Partially Order Sets) – Streams (Linearly Ordered Sets) and Part II: Clouds (Partially Order Sets) - Streams (Linearly Ordered Sets). I encourage you to review the posts [...]

May has been an interesting month around the CEP blogosphere. Mark Palmer and the Apama team continues to lead the field with informative, interesting and provocative posts. I would like to personally commend Mark for his leadership in the community-at-large.
TIBCO’s CEP blog has been active thanks to posts by Alan Lundberg, Paul [...]

From a commercialization perspective, Mark Palmer and John Bates of Progress Apama have done a excellent job of beginning to document the history of CEP.
One of the biggest problems prior to commercialization of event processing engines was that each event processing application was yet-another hand-made custom implementation.
For example, in the military, [...]

In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 5), we discussed situation refinement, the functional component of event processing that describes refining multiple event objects in order to estimate and identify business situations and scenarios in real-time. Today, in Part 6 of What is Complex Event Processing, we discuss impact assessment - where [...]

In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 4), we discussed event refinement, also referred to as object refinement or track and trace. Today, in part 5 of What is Complex Event Processing, we discuss the heart of CEP, situation refinement.
Situation refinement is the functional component [...]

In What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 3), we discussed event preprocessing in event processing applications. Now, in Part 4, we discuss event refinement, also referred to as object refinement or track and trace.
Event refinement is the functional aspect of event processing that describes refining [...]

In an earlier blog entry, What is Complex Event Processing? (Part 1), we introduced a functional reference architecture for event processing. Now, we discuss another important component of distributed CEP architectures, event preprocessing.
Event preprocessing is a general functionality that describes normalizing data in preparation [...]
