Abstract:
The merging of the two great technologies of
Service Oriented Architecture and Complex Event Processing is a
concept that is quickly gaining popularity around the world with
mainstream companies such as IBM joining in the trend. This will
open a whole.new world of opportunities in IT networks and in
many SOA related realms. Project SCI-Flex is an effort which
has become a part of this concept with the development of a
flexible framework supporting SOA and CEP mediation and
much more. This paper explores the opportunities brought out by
the merging of SOA and CEP and highlights the approach and
success we have achieved in our endeavor, as well as looking
ahead at the future real world potential of this concept.
