Complex Event Processing enables you to respond to fast-changing conditions, take advantage of opportunities, and pre-empt threats.
Complex Event Processing is a technique for extracting business value from event data -- what's happening inside your company, what's happening outside of your company, what's happening on the web, what your competitors are doing, what's coming in over the news feeds.
Complex Event Processing is about taking all your raw event data, summarizing it, and distilling it into a few insights that will help you make faster or better decisions.
Complex Event Processing simplifies what's happening.
Complex event processing is spreading to a lot of routine business applications, such as:
- Logistics and supply chain management
- Customer experience management
- Forward prevention
- Service-oriented architecture deployments
- Basically any place in your operations where you're making decisions on the fly based on things that are happening today, things that are happening now, things that you can't control
Tune into this new program and let industry experts from featured analyst firm, Gartner, Inc. and opinion leaders from Progress Software’s Apama Division show you what complex event processing can do for your organization.
By leveraging real-world experience, these experts will offer guidance on how to approach your deployments to make them successful.
