Intelligent Business Operations: BPM & Analytics in the Event-Driven Enterprise

In recent years, Complex Event Processing (CEP) has emerged as a key technology that leading businesses use to differentiate themselves from competitors. Traditional enterprise software responds to atomic events in isolation. CEP allows enterprises to identify related events (or even the lack of expected events). When combined with powerful real-time analytics applied to those event patterns, important business trends -- which are not visible in the isolated items -- can be revealed. These revelations can help identify, in near real time, risks and opportunities that the enterprise can use to gain advantage. However, those insights will not actually yield advantage unless related processes are in place, or can be put in place quickly, to effect business action. Business Process Management (BPM) software is designed to enable precisely this sort of agile, on-the-fly action.

The moral is "humans out, automation in" -- end of story, right? Not exactly. As it turns out, it’s the right combination of human and machine that proves necessary for the win. Sounds a lot like business process improvement to me.
