Event-driven architecture

Respond to critical business events in real-time with an event-driven architecture

Every business is surrounded by a heartbeat of information that continuously describes the state of the business ecosystem. The ability to tap into this heartbeat, understand it, and take action is vital to a digital business. TIBCO provides a comprehensive, user-friendly solution for event-driven architectures, leveraging open-source tools like Apache Kafka and Pulsar. This allows you to harness the power of real-time events happening within your business every day.

Why TIBCO for event-driven architecture

Create a responsive, reliable, and scalable experience for your customers

Accelerate business agility

With a loosely coupled and responsive architecture, you can design cutting-edge digital services that will take you ahead of your competition and give you the flexibility to easily add, adapt, and upgrade individual components as your business requires.

Respond quickly

Digital events capture moments, which usually have brief relevance for your business. If you act, you may capture an opportunity. If you wait, the opportunity vanishes. An event-driven architecture allows you to respond to events quickly and use past events to discover patterns.

Scale easily

Don't risk being overwhelmed by your own success. Adopt an event-driven architecture to ensure that your infrastructure can grow with your business. Whether you use elastic cloud services, containers in the public cloud, deploy on-premises, or need a hybrid approach, an event-driven architecture gives you the ability to handle the largest event streams.

Key benefits of an event-driven architecture
