RTI Unleashes the Power of Complex Event Processing

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) September 19, 2007 --

ORLANDO, FL, Gartner Event Processing Summit 2007–Sep. 19, 2007–RTI, The Real-Time Middleware Experts, announced today that it has integrated Coral8’s Complex Event Processing (CEP) engine with RTI’s high-performance messaging, caching and data-visualization infrastructure for real-time applications. With this combined solution, developers can now rapidly create and deploy distributed applications capable of processing millions of messages, data updates and events per second, with latencies less than a millisecond. This performance is one to three orders of magnitude higher than is possible with traditional distributed CEP deployments.

“Coral8 is pleased to be working with RTI, an established leader in high-performance middleware,” said Terry Cunningham, CEO of Coral8. “As our customers scale their applications, they find that the limiting factor is not the CEP engine, but the ability of the underlying communications infrastructure to deliver data to the engine. With its high-performance messaging and caching technology, RTI eliminates that bottleneck and allows CEP applications to take advantage of significantly higher data volumes.”

CEP applications analyze streaming data in real time in order to quickly identify meaningful and actionable information. Examples include the analysis of financial market data for algorithmic trading and the fusion of data from multiple sensors, such as radars, for improved accuracy and situational awareness.

RTI’s high-performance data distribution capability unleashes the power of CEP. RTI allows individual applications to receive and send between tens of thousands and millions of messages per second, a rate one to three orders of magnitude higher than is possible with other distribution technologies. RTI also eliminates the need for message brokers—a choke point in most systems. Aggregate, system-wide throughput is limited only by the switching fabric. This performance gives users a competitive information advantage while simplifying system architecture.

“The high performance and scalability of the Coral8 Engine make it a natural complement to RTI’s real-time data distribution technology,” commented Stan Schneider, CEO of RTI. “The performance of a real-time application is impacted by all of the software and hardware in the critical data path. Just as a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, an application can perform no better than its slowest component. By coupling our industry-leading technologies, RTI and Coral8 remove bottlenecks and help developers and OEMs build scalable systems with maximum throughput and minimal latency from end to end.”
