Topic: Sense and respond to data coming from the edge of your enterprise with WebSphere MQ Telemetry
View the replay and download the presentation
WebSphere MQ is the market-leading integration product for message-oriented-middleware (MOM) for the past 15 years, providing reliable message delivery. With the advance of embedded device technology, a market began to emerge for extending the MOM style of integration to the edges of the enterprise thru telemetry. This new capability allowed companies to have greater operational control and insight on their business at its furthest extremes.
In response to industry needs, IBM created a telemetry protocol that has since been successfully deployed in a variety of industries from energy and utilities to retail. In IBM Smarter Planet terminology, telemetry deals with the link between “instrumented” and “interconnected” tiers.
This session will provide an overview of IBM telemetry scenarios, demonstrating how the protocol can be implemented to maximize the value of business interactions.
