Abstract:
Event processing is an important established concept for event-driven system development – with database triggers and event processing engines being typical examples of event processing technology. With nowadays movement into cloud computing, highly flexible scalability in cloud environments becomes an important challenge for event processing applications as they have many event sources and events to be processed there. As the core contribution of our work, we propose a novel approach to providing event processing applications with cloud-enabled scalability transparently to users (viz., the application developers) as part of an event-driven system itself.
