Water’s had an article a few weeks ago titled “Quantum Leap” about BNP Paribas. Now, BNP Paribas happen to be a TIBCO event processing customer, and TIBCO’s CEP group is internally called “Quantum Leap”, so one might naturally infer that this was a use case study on their use of TIBCO event processing.
But unfortunately it isn’t.
But it is still very interesting, and potentially very relevant to Complex Event Processing. The story talks about how BNP Paribas reworked some internal applications to exploit common off-the-shelf video accelerator boards – which, are effectively miniature high performance parallel-processing supercomputers. Just the sort of thing you might need for certain types of event stream processing, one would think… and would probably work very nicely inside an ActiveSpaces node…
