Alexander Widder (Centrum für Informations-Technologie Transfer GmbH, Germany),* and I have been discussing the need for an event cloud generator that could be used for generating CEP scenarios for testing and evaluation purposes.** For example, integrating* flat files from UNIX/Linux syslog generators* (if one exists, need to check) with an open source ESB like MuleSource might be interesting.*
Another possibility (there are many possibilities,*naturally)*would be to use open source ESP software, for example Esper, to generate a stream of events that would be published to an open ESB like MuleSource to model and simulate (or generate) an event cloud.*
We all*read a lot of posts, marketing material and blog entries about numerous CEP and ESP topics related to event processing; but we don’t have an open, standards based CEP event generator that can be used to*model and simulate*CEP scenarios.** I think it is time for a group of “vendor neutral” folks to work together in this important area.* Anyone interested?* Please comment.
