Creating BI Mashups

 Acronym hell is upon us, but still a good article on Event Driven Architecture (EDA) and how it will change business processes from pull to push.

When we build our BI with EDA on SOA, we essentially create the BI as a mash-up of services. We can take that even further and have the BI component itself expose its trend data and other analysis results as a service. We can then consume that data and use it in other applications. For instance, if the CEP query in Listing 2 will generate an event every time that an order exceeds $100,000, we can present a nice dashboard on the CEO's portal that will show in real time how many large orders the organization processes per hour/per day, and so on, along with a few other meaningful gauges.
