OpenCredo Esper is Go!
I have the huge pleasure today of announcing the public availability of the open source OpenCredo Esper project, which has today hit its 1.0 release. From Jonas Partner's (O/C Esper project lead) release notes:
The OpenCredo Esper project builds on top of the excellent Complex Event Stream processing project, Esper. The OpenCredo Esper project is primarily motivated by a desire to make using Esper easier within messaging applications built on Spring Integration.
Using Esper to provide views of the data/messages passing through a system is an excellent way to improve the comprehension of complex event driven/asynchronous messaging based applications in Spring Integration.
In order to implement the Spring Integration integrations, the OpenCredo Esper project also created a Spring-style template which makes calling Esper extremely simple regardless of whether the application is using Spring Integration.
I had a hand in the early development of this project and it's great to see it joining the OpenCredo AMQ project in our open source ranks.
Look for a follow-up post where I'll show how to use OpenCredo Esper to implement a simple Throughput Monitor to some Spring Integration-based messaging infrastructure.
