Data in a database is information at rest. IBM Information Server Change Data Capture/ES (Event Server) puts your information in motion so you can monitor data events in your production systems and react proactively to gain a competitive advantage. You get real-time insight into business operations and improve business agility and productivity.

The Business Benefits:

• Event awareness – events are detected as they occur in mission-critical production applications and consolidated with valuable business information to feed into the message queues of leading enterprise application integration (EAI), business process management (BPM), and service-oriented architecture (SOA) environments.
• Low impact – log-based Change Data Capture (CDC) technology identifies and integrates events as they occur without impacting the performance of mission-critical systems.
• Faster implementation at low cost – an easy-to-use GUI allows for quick setup of event detection and message delivery, with no need for custom coding, while the embedded Java database acts as a staging area where complex business logic can be performed on the data as it is mapped between applications.

• Optimize revenue and improve cross-selling and up-selling opportunities by capturing customer-related transactions across multiple sources and providing a single consistent view of information across all customer touch points
• Populate real-time dashboards for on-demand analytics and business process management (BPM)
• Improve customer service by flowing real-time sales data into an inventory distribution system so products are always in stock whether the customer orders in-store, online or through a call centre
• Mitigate risk by detecting critical transactions quickly to better respond to compliance and fraud issues

• Monitor account data and react proactively to generate additional revenue
• Gain real-time insight into business operations to improve productivity
• Keep critical systems running at peak performance
