How Was it for You? The Future of the Quality Experience
One major emergence from the Big Data debate especially in the Telco Industry is the sudden elevation of the focus on Customer Experience with QoE or Quality of Experience and CEM or Customer Experience management. With new and emerging technologies such as Near Field Communication (NFC), Machine to Machine (M2M) and Mobile Social Media Apps hitting the news every day like a Reality ‘Stars’ socializing antics; we are all fascinated by how much organisations either know, can find out or deduce about our lives: what we like / dislike, how much we may be worth to those organisations, what we already own and even where we physically are or will be in the next few minutes. All the minutiae of our lives and personalities laid bare to be pawed over, analysed and used to control us and eventually sell us yet more ‘stuff’. (more…)

Social Media Monitoring with CEP, pt. 2: Context As Important As Sentiment
When I last wrote about social media monitoring, I made a case for using a technology like Complex Event Processing (“CEP”) to detect rapidly growing and geospatially-oriented social media mentions that can provide early warning detection for the public good (Social Media Monitoring for Early Warning of Public Safety Issues, Oct. 27, 2011).
A recent article by Chris Matyszczyk of CNET highlights the often conflicting and confusing nature of monitoring social media. A 26-year old British citizen, Leigh Van Bryan, gearing up for a holiday of partying in Los Angeles, California (USA), tweeted in British slang his intention to have a good time: “Free this week, for quick gossip/prep before I go and destroy America.” Since I’m not too far removed the culture of youth, I did take this to mean partying, cutting loose, having a good time (and other not-so-current definitions.)

The Reality of Real-Time: When Fast Enough Can Make You Real Money
One person’s “real-time” is another person’s “fast enough”. (Or is it vice versa?) I’ve been in the Complex Event
Processing (CEP) space for almost five years, and nothing gets this industry more spun up than heated discussions about “feeds and speeds” - the fastest products, the lowest latencies, the greatest event volumes, the most events per second and so on. (more…)
Craziest 2012 CEP Predictions – Watson, Kardashian, the BCS and More
Remember the last time you were home in the evening, there was little in your kitchen to eat but you didn’t want to go out? Then you had an idea – that you could concoct a delicious meal made from a variety of completely unrelated and forgotten frozen and semi-fresh food coupled with rarely used spices and other odd ingredients. That’s a lot like predicting the future. If you stay safe and conservative, you’re going to get close to what you expect. But, if you get all crazy (think stir fry Top Ramen and turkey jerky), your prediction will sound cool, but has a low probability of working out (unless you are on Top Chef). (more…)
What Tim Tebow and CEP Have in Common?
Actually, not much, but I couldn’t pass up a chance to mention Tebow in a blog after yet another miraculous victory. Seriously, there’s actually some interesting commonality with CEP and not just Tim Tebow, but most NFL quarterbacks.
Tim Tebow loves CEP
In his new book ‘Event Processing for Business‘, father-of-CEP, David Luckham says, “In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, real-time events require immediate action. Event processing (EP)-the ability to collect, analyze, and react to real-time events-is a key component of twenty first century business information systems.” (more…)
