Just coming off a ten day vacation, I was planning to write a few posts on a few “pure” scientific topics like string theory, complexity, and emergence. However, a few folks contacted me and asked me my opinion on TIBCO Silver; so, I thought I would at least blog on my first impressions.
TIBCO’s marketing [...]

Following up on KMeans Clustering Now Running on Elastic MapReduce, Stephen Green has generously documented the steps that was necessary to get an example of k-Means clustering up and running on Amazon’s Elastic MapReduce (EMR) on the Apache Lucene Mahout wiki.

As a side note, there has been considerable [...]

In A Review of Zabbix - Zabbix Rules! (Part 1) we provided a brief introduction to Zabbix in the context of network and security management. In this post I will discuss Zabbix as an event processing platform.
Zabbix is like most event processing platforms. Zabbix provides both agent-initiated events as well as server-requested events. [...]

Our recent post, for example, SOA in Cardiac Arrest, Long Live Services and Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS), combined with many great blog posts I have read in the new year, has got me thinking about IT infrastructure services. Software as a Service (SaaS) is a bit boring to discuss. However, Capability as a [...]

Folks are worried about the future of CEP.
Vendors have spun so much misinformation around the term “CEP” that this three letter acronym (TLA) has begun to have little meaning other than to reflect a confusing web of solutions overhyped around a few relatively simple stream processing engines, used primarily in financial services. Frankly speaking, in [...]

In his Followup to “Do you need a Commercial CEP System?” Marc calls out Progress Apama and their great work in financial services. I have always liked Apama’s product and what they are doing; however, we should be clear on the difference between marketing and technology.
Progress Apama was the company who, when the buzzword “CEP” [...]

For archiving purposes, I have uploaded 24 public CEP presentations that I presented over an 18 month period at various conferences from March 14, 2006 to September 21, 2007. These presentations can be viewed here. For example, my first public CEP presentation:

Recently we penned The Attack of the Spiders from the Clouds where we mentioned how cloud computing infrastructures can be used to stage malicous or accidential network attacks.
Today I challenge our CEP/ESP/EP vendors (or SIs) to create the following solution to detect and block rogue bots on Apache web sites. I will install and test [...]
