StreamBase Broadens Footprint to over 2.2 Million Developers with Eclipse-Based Platform & Plug-in Architecture for Complex Event Processing.StreamBase Further Aligns With Eclipse To Fuel Unmatched Extensibility & Rapid Integration Of Stream Processing Applications Into Any Environment BOSTON -- StreamBase Systems, Inc., provider of the industry's fastest and most powerful real-time and historical Complex Event Processing Complex Event Processing, or CEP, is a technology for building and managing event-driven information systems. CEP is primarily an event processing concept that deals with the task of processing multiple events from an event cloud with the goal of identifying the meaningful (CEP CEP congenital erythropoietic porphyria. CEP abbr. congenital erythropoietic porphyria ) software, today announced a new set of Eclipse-based plug-ins that make it easy for developers worldwide to extend and rapidly integrate StreamBase applications into any enterprise environment. These plug-ins enable developers to connect new data feeds and custom adapters to StreamBase's stream processing engine in a fraction of the time typically required for extensive low-level custom-coding of real-time feed interfaces. StreamBase is the first CEP vendor to deliver a free Eclipse-based plug-in development environment, and by doing so, is expanding its footprint to more than 2.2 million developers globally who consider Eclipse the de facto standard Hardware or software that is widely used, but not endorsed by a standards organization. Contrast with de jure standard. de facto standard - A widespread consensus on a particular product or protocol which has not been ratified by any official standards body, such as ISO, for Java application development. "We've all seen mainstream adoption of stream processing for complex events intensify significantly over the last 12 months," said Dr. Michael Stonebraker, Founder and CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization.

We were the first to support a SQL-based programming language for stream processing, and we're now furthering our commitment to support popular open source development tools like Eclipse. With StreamBase's end-to-end CEP framework, supported by Eclipse and StreamSQL, developers can quickly integrate new feeds and are able to test and deploy StreamBase applications without the pain and maintenance associated with traditional custom-coded real-time stream processing applications." Developers can download the free set of plug-ins for Eclipse, which are now a standard part of the StreamBase Developer Edition, by visiting the newly re-launched StreamBase Developer Zone [See also STREAMBASE ANNOUNCES NEW DEVELOPER ZONE TO AID & ACCELERATE BUILD OF COMPLEX EVENT PROCESSING APPLICATIONS]. The Eclipse-based plug-ins offer wizards and templates that dramatically cut the time required to integrate stream processing capabilities with existing messaging systems and real-time market data feeds. With these new capabilities, StreamBase developers can interface and connect StreamBase with existing infrastructures and systems including: - XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. message streams - Financial market data feeds such as Reuters or Bloomberg, and Exchanges such as NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on - Electronic trading platforms such as REDIPlus, custom trading platforms, and FIX-based order routing systems - JMS-based messaging platforms such as TIBCO TIBCO The Information Bus Company Enterprise Message Service[TM] (EMS), IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) WebSphere[R] MQ and proprietary message buses - Historical data stores via JDBC (Java DataBase Connectivity) A programming interface that lets Java applications access a database via the SQL language. Since Java interpreters (Java Virtual Machines) are available for all major client platforms, this allows a platform-independent database - Unstructured text feeds - Data distribution systems such as IBM's WebSphere Front Office, Tibco Rendezvous, Wombat, Reuters RMDS RMDS Reuters Market Data System RMDS Rocky Mountain Dressage Society RMDS Report Management and Distribution System RMDS Regional Micro-Disarmament Standards RMDS Remote Medical Diagnosis System RMDS Regional Material Distribution System , and Reuters Triarch StreamBase's Eclipse-based environment for CEP will also provide the foundation for developers worldwide to take advantage of Eclipse capabilities including testing, debugging, and version control. Furthermore, the increased alignment with Eclipse's development environment enables StreamBase to be easily embedded or plugged into a variety of tools for application development, including those supported by OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and and ISV (Independent Software Vendor) A person or company that develops software. It implies an organization that specializes in software only and is not part of a computer systems or hardware manufacturer. partners. For example, Data Stream Analysis Limited (DSAL DSAL Digital South Asia Library DSAL Down Syndrome Association of the Lowcountry (Charleston, South Carolina) ), StreamBase's leading development partner in the Finance sector in London views the extended Eclipse environment as being complementary to providing rapid integration into any environment. "We're very excited by this announcement," said Ian Hillier-Brook, Managing Director at DSAL. "The Eclipse IDE is currently our main development environment and we anticipate even faster StreamBase product development cycles with the closer integration provided by the new plug-ins. Additionally, the enhanced integration greatly eases the development of our custom high-performance StreamBase extensions and will mean less switching between development environments." Pricing & Availability Free access to StreamBase's Developer Edition continues to be available, and the latest extension of its Eclipse-based environment and supporting plug-ins will be available on Friday, December 8th, 2006 at www.streambase.com/developers.
