With the inauguration of a new US President just around the corner, I’ve been ruminating on the forthcoming changes. It’s not an easy job to begin with, and since there’s so much work to do and he’s got a brand new team, I’m thinking President-elect Obama might be able to use Complex Event Processing and / or Business Activity Monitoring software.
Here’s how… (in the form of a top ten list)
Top 10 Reasons Obama Needs CEP/BAM
10. A new US Government operations visibility tool for the newly appointed Chief Performance Officer cabinet post.
9. As a new Presidential dashboard with real power.
8. Another reason to stick with his Blackberry – TIBCO CEP product BusinessEvents creates Blackberry alerts.
7. Predict what Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez will say and do next.
6. Choose the new Presidential dog based on historical breed information correlated with new puppy attributes and real-time events.
5. Automatically rebalance his personal 401K before Bernanke announces FED rate changes.
4. New Affinity rewards program for frequent taxpayers.
3. Make sure nobody plays the overnight commodities market with the bailout money float.
2. Keep an eye on Hillary. As an added bonus, Hillary can use it to keep an eye on Bill.
And the number 1 reason…
1. oBAMa – as in Business Activity Monitoring.
That’s what I think, anyway. How about you? Let us know.
