WSO2 to Present Workshops Analyzing Big Data Streams From Internet of Things Devices in London and Houston


Half-day interactive workshops will explore how teams can improve business performance by aggregating and streaming big data from IoT devices and other information feeds

Mountain View, CA – July 8, 2014 – Today, enterprise teams seek to gain a competitive edge by acting on strategic and tactical intelligence recommendations to strengthen business performance, revenue growth, and customer service. WSO2 will present two workshops that explore how organizations can gain deeper, just-in-time insights through big data captured from Internet of Things (IoT) devices and other information feeds.

The half-day “Big Data Streams, Small Internet Things, and Enterprise Dream Team” workshops being held in two cities in July:

Gaining a Competitive Edge By Delivering Big Data Streams

The workshop will explore how to enable a more adaptive business by creating big data activity streams, triggering events, and delivering contextual data that has been captured from intelligent controllers within a multitude of IoT devices and connected business information feeds—including clearinghouses, ad networks, and weather services, to name a few.

This solution architecture workshop will describe how leading enterprises are structurally improving business performance, revenue growth, and customer service by delivering big data streaming solutions containing big data repositories, complex event processing (CEP), adaptive workflow triggers, and dashboards. The workshop will explore best practices by guiding attendees through proof-of-concept demonstrations, real-world use cases, architecture reference diagrams, and facilitated discussion. Additionally, participants will have the opportunity to describe their scenarios, ask questions, and learn from WSO2 experts and their peers.

Key topics will include:

  • Why businesses are shifting from static workflows to adaptive business activities triggered by big data streams and events
  • Why teams are building business solutions around business activity stream events and contextual data
  • What architectural components deliver complex temporal pattern matching, big data discovery, accessible APIs, and real-time notifications
  • How IT teams are reshaping business interactions, connecting things and streams, and enhancing business performance
  • How to define proof of concept (POC) project success metrics and infrastructure cost
  • How to spin up a business activity monitoring (BAM) and CEP environment feeding user dashboards and triggering adaptive workflows
