Having been around the block many times, I enjoyed reading about SOA sinking into trough of disillusionment.
Let me tell you what is SOA, really….
SOA, in hardware terms, is the concept that if you take a perfectly good running computer, life, including your precious ROI, will be better if you:
Share the motherboard as a service;
Share [...]

I read the debate (here, here and here) on how Complex Event Processing (CEP) fits into the wider software architectural themes of Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Event Driven Architectures (EDA). More comments and blog posts followed (including this one, and this one). Frankly speaking, I was surprised to see so much misunderstanding on fundamental [...]

More often than not, folks working in the field of complex event processing do not truly understand CEP. We often see the same folks try to position and mischaracterize CEP as business process orchestration, business process management, event-driven architecture or even an evolution of service-oriented architecture. Well-intended, this mischaracterization of CEP is often for sales [...]

I was pleased to read the Paul Vincent’s post, TIBCO BusinessEvents 3.0. TIBCO has always had a forward thinking vision for distributed computing and this release of BE 3.0 is another step in the right direction. TIBCO now has the only commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) event processing platform on the market that supports distributed event processing, multi-agent [...]

Interestingly, CEP is Not BPM, BAM, BRE, BRMS or SOA stimulated many great comments and the rebuttal Smart Order Routing and CEP - Made for Each Other. James Taylor responded with Business rules, decisions and events. I followed up with CEP is Not Low Latency Messaging, EAI or ESB and James replied in turn with Still More on Event Processing. It’s [...]

In respose to CEP is Not BPM, BAM, BRE, BRMS or SOA, fellow blogger Mark Palmer posts, Smart Order Routing and CEP - Made for Each Other. Mark does a good job describing his perspective on smart order routing (SOR), yet his counterpoint that SOR is “complex event processing” is quite unconvincing.
I agree with Mark that SOR is important [...]

A post in Technology content of current CEP products? reminds me of why I rarely, if ever, agree with anything that comes out of Aleri’s marketing team. To fair to Jeff, it is not only Aleri but others, who continually misdefine business process management (BPM) as CEP.
Jeff uses the example, “Smart Order Routing” as an example of [...]
