Complex Event Processing Platforms are now evolving from the early adoption phase and becoming much more mainstream for many companies. There are a fair few choices on the type of event-driven platform you can invest your time in to evaluate, and deploy your next generation event-driven solutions.
In the next chapter, we will delve into the main components of the Oracle Event Processing Solution Platform, such as the EDA Java Application Container that has been optimized for performance and scalability. We focus on the evolution of the technology and its unique modular approach enabling this technology to be used in a wide variety of event-driven implementations.
More importantly, we will get you involved with the Oracle product directly, by stepping you through the process of creating an application and publishing (deploying) on your own installed version of the system, and we also show you the capabilities provided in a rich Internet application, how to monitor, and manage the system.
As you progress through the chapter, you will build up a solid foundation of knowledge that will be needed in the remaining sections of this book, and hopefully inspire you to become experts in Oracle Event Processing.
