The demonstration we witnessed was in another industry &#8211; Manufacturing &#8211;\u00a0and was provided by a Progress partner Manuvis.\u00a0 This demonstration was so striking because of the way that Manuvis has incorporated event processing into discrete manufacturing. Consider this example:<\/p>\n<p>Manuvis continuously monitors production equipment and other key production statistics\u00a0in a manufacturing environment. Suppose the software detects a continuing anomaly in a machine. The software will notify workers to tend to the machine. The software will also dynamically re-direct production and potentially re-optimize the production schedule. Workers, in a Manuvis environment, answer to this network software &#8211; not a production supervisor. Why? No human being can continuously monitor every aspect of production, every product produced, every machine, etc. Nor can a production supervisor continuously re-adjust production schedules, repairs, etc. while monitoring events at the plant.<\/p>\n<p>ERP systems were good at crafting a periodic production schedule; however, the need to optimize business results requires a more dynamic solution. Event-driven technologies, like Apama, are particularly well-suited to such a business need.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vitalanalysis.com\/va_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/apama-manuvis-report.jpg\" title=\"apama manuvis report cover\"><img src=\"http:\/\/vitalanalysis.com\/va_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/apama-manuvis-report.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"apama manuvis report cover\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like a copy of this report, please complete the request form on this website or send a valid, business email to: <a href=\"mailto:contact@vitalanalysis.com\">contact@vitalanalysis.com<\/a> .
