Abstract

Continuous streams of event data are generated in many application domains including financial trading, fraud detection, website analytics and system monitoring. An open challenge in data management is how to analyse and react to large volumes of event data in real-time. As centralised event processing systems reach their computational limits, we need a new class of event processing systems that support deployments at the scale of thousands of machines in a cloud computing setting. In this poster we present SEEP, a novel architecture for event processing that can scale to a large number of machines and is elastic in order to adapt dynamically to workload changes.
