Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, real-time events require immediate action. Event processing (EP)—the ability to collect, analyze, and react to real-time events—is a key component of twenty-first-century business information systems. Presenting a comprehensive overview of the history, status, and future of this continuously evolving field, Event Processing for Business explores the many different ways you can apply event processing in your business operations to enable decision-making right now, as events are happening, and maintain the competitiveness of your organization in an increasingly real-time world.

In Event Processing for Business, author David Luckham shares his decades of IT research and consulting to show you how to use the events in your business and in the world around you to create new, groundbreaking ways of doing business. You’ll discover how to: detect and analyze patterns of events to create a higher level of business operations; maximize the information you extract from the events that are available to you; choose the right event processing technology to suit your specific business needs; and keep technology adoption costs down. Luckham also provides practical guidance on how EP is best integrated into an overall IT strategy and how its architectural styles differ from more conventional approaches.

Emphasizing EP examples used in a diverse range of business, including financial trading, banking, fraud detection, IT security, transportation, energy, customer relations management, and healthcare, Event Processing for Business explores:
