Below is a graphic I put together for my September Gartner presentation,
Getting Started in CEP: How to Build an Event Processing Application, called “EDA Visualized.”
In this graphly representation of EDA, we*show the sense-and-respond*model around the
functional CEP/EP reference architecture.** I have changed*traditional view of*”Sense - Analyze - Respond” to “Sense - Analyze and Visualize - Respond” because visualization tools are critically important.***
Key EDA Concepts
Sense - Detect events across the enterprise in real-time.* Normalize and contextualize.
Analyze & Visualize - Aggregate events across multiple sources; correlate with historical data, refine.
Respond - Manage resources, processes; Invoke actions in real-time.
The
Sense - Analyze and Visualize - Respond (decision loop) model illustrates the high level concepts*of*EDA*(the “what”) and the CEP/EP functional reference architecture (adapted*from the JDL model)*represents “the how”, from a high level functional components perspective.
