IBM Websphere Business Events
WebSphere Business Events is IBM's implementation of an event-processing engine.
Event processing involves altering the existing server software in an organization to emit events whenever a notable event occurs. Event-processing software can monitor these events and look out for certain patterns of interest. This is useful for the prevention of Credit card fraud or for giving executives a high-level view of what's going on in their company. For a more detailed description see complex event processing.Components
The software has components to do the following:
- Configure sources for Events
- Allow non-IT personnel to define patterns of events to trigger actions. These rules use natural language constructors.
- Allow non-IT personnel to define actions to occur when the defined patterns occur.
- A runtime which monitors events from the configured sources triggering actions when the defined patterns of events are matched.
