TIBCO, Oracle, IBM and F.U.Berlin presented the latest tutorial from the EPTS Reference Architecture Group today at the ACM Distributed Event Based Systems Conference being held at IBM’s TJ Watson Research Labs. This covered the current work of the EPTS Reference Architecture group on defining (and refining) common event processing design patterns like “filter”, “enrich” and “route”.
This tutorial proved interesting to prepare: we discussed patterns in terms of the different event processing technologies of the presenters: rules-oriented event processing (TIBCO BusinessEvents, IBM Websphere Decision Server Business Events component, and Prova) and stream-oriented event processing (Oracle CEP, and IBM Infosphere Streams). In future patterns work we’ll try and expand this list (as well as the patterns covered), for example to include the TIBCO BusinessEvents Query Language, Pattern Framework, and State Model, and maybe TIBCO Hawk rules.Watch this space!
