The Apama CEP and BAM Architecture
Apama, the industry's leading platform for Complex Event Processing (CEP), allows applications to monitor, analyze and act on changing business information instantly. CEP puts the "brains behind BAM", enabling complex real-time questions to be asked and answered in milliseconds.
Apama business activity monitoring software provides these key elements:
- Event-Driven BAM Dashboards - Rich, graphical, event-driven dashboards provide the "face" of BAM for all types of users – ranging from CEOs to operations managers - in an integrated and seamless fashion.
- RAD Dashboard Development Tools – The Apama BAM platform features business activity monitoring tools that allow for rapid application development (RAD) of BAM dashboards..

- CEP Engine – The Apama Correlation Engine powers business activity monitoring with sophisticated CEP features that monitor multiple event streams and identify relationships amongst events through application of CEP rules.
- Event Data Management, Research, Testing, and Simulation – Event data requires data management services that capture 1) every event (meaningful or not), 2) filtered subsets of events as determined by CEP logic, and 3) new "derived" events (aka "complex" events) that are created from other events. Event data management forms the basis of a research, testing, and simulation environment that are crucial to successful BAM deployments.

- RAD CEP and BAM Development Tools – Event development tools allow business users, business analysts, and IT developers express rules. Apama's BAM capabilities exploit tools that make it easy for all users to express event processing logic, with a range of interfaces designed specifically for each type of user.
- SmartBlocks - SmartBlocks allow Apama users to encapsulate CEP rules or scenarios and expose them to business users via a high-level, functional interface, and therefore provide the critical link between business and technical users.
