Distributed event based challenges for systems and applications management
Donald Ferguson · 2011
IT system and application management is critical to business use of IT systems. Distributed event processing is core to application and systems management, even for applications that are not "event driven." Emerging technology like virtualization and cloud computing significantly increase the central role of distributed event processing. IT systems and applications management introduces major challenges and requirements not typically seen in application centric event processing. This presentation provides an overview of IT system and application management use of distributed event processing, and the evolution for cloud computing. The presentation then provides an overview of current solutions and technology to the requirements. Finally, there will be a discussion of open issues and research challenges.
