Microsoft StreamInsight is a powerful platform that you can use to develop and deploy complex event processing (CEP) applications. Its high-throughput stream processing architecture and the Microsoft .NET Framework-based development platform enable you to quickly implement robust and highly efficient event processing applications. Event stream sources typically include data from manufacturing applications, financial trading applications, Web analytics, and operational analytics. By using StreamInsight, you can develop CEP applications that derive immediate business value from this raw data by reducing the cost of extracting, analyzing, and correlating the data; and by allowing you to monitor, manage, and mine the data for conditions, opportunities, and defects almost instantly.

By using StreamInsight to develop CEP applications, you can achieve the following tactical and strategic goals for your business:

• Monitor your data from multiple sources for meaningful patterns, trends, exceptions, and opportunities.
• Analyze and correlate data incrementally while the data is in-flight -- that is, without first storing it--yielding very low latency. Aggregate seemingly unrelated events from multiple sources and perform highly complex analyses over time.
• Manage your business by performing low-latency analytics on the events and triggering response actions that are defined on your business key performance indicators (KPIs).
• Respond quickly to areas of opportunity or threat by incorporating your KPI definitions into the logic of the CEP application, thereby improving operational efficiency and your ability to respond quickly to business opportunities.
• Mine events for new business KPIs.
• Move toward a predictive business model by mining historical data to continuously refine and improve your KPI definitions.

This course covers the key concepts in Microsoft StreamInsight and provides developers with a step-by-step guidance to build their first data streaming applications. The course is expected to run for two hours and is expected to cover the following topics:

20 minutes - Welcome and Introductions
20 minutes - StreamInsight use cases, architecture and demo
20 minutes - Getting the data in and out: writing adapters for StreamInsight
20 minutes - StreamInsight queries: writing continuous queries and analytics for StreamInsight in LINQ
20 minutes - Building rich StreamInsight applications
20 minutes - Deploying and managing StreamInsight applications

Oracle

Integrating Maps into Oracle Business Intelligence

Dr. Jayant Sharma (Technical Director, Spatial Oracle Product Development)

In this session we will demonstrate the integration of Oracle's geospatial and enterprise business intelligence technologies. Oracle Spatial, a feature of the Oracle database, contains a wealth of capabilities for geospatial data management, analysis, and provisioning. Oracle MapViewer is a feature of Oracle Fusion Middleware providing light-weight interactive mapping for integration with enterprise applications. Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition Plus (Oracle BI EE Plus) is a comprehensive suite of enterprise BI products that delivers a full range of analysis and reporting capabilities. Featuring a unified, highly scalable, modern architecture, Oracle BI EE Plus provides intelligence and analytics from data spanning enterprise sources and applications—empowering the largest communities with complete and relevant insight. By locationenabling the BI platform, we are able to enhance traditional BI interactions with location-aware analytics, cartographic views of analytic results, and geography-based drilling and analyses. As opposed to rigid, static integrations, we will demonstrate a highly interactive, customizable, and fully-embedded geospatial BI solution.
