Event Driven Applications

Event Driven Applications Drive Operational Responsiveness

The amount of information your organization must work with is constantly growing. And the speed with which it is delivered is accelerating rapidly. Event driven applications can not only help you manage this data effectively, but also can help you use it to create a more responsive operation.

Event driven applications are built on event driven architectures (EDA) and can work with data in real time. Rather than waiting until data has been received and written to a database, for example, event driven applications monitor inbound data streams in real time and respond immediately when opportunities, threats, or other significant business conditions are detected. Using event driven applications gives your decision makers the ability to get up-to-the-second updates on changing business conditions as well as key performance indicators.

Building, deploying, and managing event driven applications can be challenging. If you are looking to simplify and optimize your applications, Progress Software offers market-leading solutions.

Create and Deploy Event Driven Applications with Progress Software

As the world’s leading provider of application infrastructure solutions, Progress Software provides an innovative solution for developing, deploying, integrating, and managing event driven applications in Progress® Apama®. Rather than a single solution, Apama is a platform for building event driven software for situations and industries that require real-time monitoring and analysis of streaming data.

Applications built with Apama can watch inbound data streams, looking for relationships or patterns that may indicate threats, opportunities, or other developments that warrant attention. Once the application recognizes a pre-defined pattern, it triggers a response or follow-up action within a millisecond. The speed, accuracy, and flexibility of Apama event driven applications have made them vital to operations management for businesses in finance, defense, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, and other industries.

Apama Applications Deliver Comprehensive Tools for Event Driven Solutions

Apama offers a variety of EDA tools that simplify the task of building and deploying EDA software:

• Apama’s real-time computing engine, the Apama Correlator, loads predefined event patterns in the system as event scenarios. When events in a data stream match conditions outlined in the scenarios, an action or response is triggered. Apama can support thousands of individual scenarios simultaneously, providing unmatched scalability.
• Apama offers development tools that meet the needs of a variety of users.
• Apama also provides tools for testing and analyzing application behavior using real-time data streams.
• Users can design graphically rich dashboards for monitoring event processing activities, providing easy-to-use interfaces for monitoring business conditions or key performance indicators.
• Apama’s flexible integration options with bidirectional connectivity to a variety of event stream resources help to simplify the deployment and operation of event driven applications.
