• TIBCO's Event-Enabled Platform Harnesses Big Data to Transform CSPs [2]

"This combinatorial skill – to unlock meaningful value from series of historical data and activity in motion – is the power of an event-enabled enterprise. Rather than analyzing massive amounts of information in a one-time effort, it processes data in real time as things change – continuously deciphering the meaning of what’s happening in the moment based on what’s known from the past...

How It Works: Understand. Anticipate. Act.

Registering activity across the enterprise, it can sense when opportunities and risks are coming and systematically ensure the right person (or system) has the right information before outcomes crystallize – what TIBCO calls the two-second advantage®.

Whether it's two minutes or two hours, it's an opportunity to take action before outcomes crystallize, redirect the course of activity, and optimize results.

The Building Blocks

• Automation: Ensure real-time information is available and can be accessed, consumed, and acted on by any application, person, or process across geographical boundaries, channels, and touch points

• Event Processing: Understand the cause of opportunities and risks so you can track and act on when they happen next

• Analytics: Find actionable insights at the speed of thought by enabling users to spot patterns, examine outliers, and share trends in data

• Cloud: Meet fluctuating demands with an efficiency that optimizes your IT cost structure.

• Social: Allow employees, customers, and partners to collaborate with each other and interact with information located in any system

• TIBCO tibbr Social Computing

"tibbr has deep, pre-configured business and application integrations for SAP, Salesforce.com, Oracle, and Microsoft SharePoint, to name just a few... The tibbr REST API makes it easy to integrate enterprise applications written in any language. Virtually every part of the tibbr interface – including subjects, user profiles, tibbr posts, and streams – can be accessed via the tibbr REST API to interact with other enterprise applications and systems... Our SmartWidgets deliver relevant subjects and conversations in tibbr alongside intranet portals, CRM systems, ERP, expense management, and other key enterprise applications." [3]

• TIBCO Nimbus is available on premise and on-demand as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) deployment.

Vivek Ranadivé, Chairman, CEO, Founder

"Mr. Ranadivé founded TIBCO in 1997 with the vision of bringing real-time technology into the mainstream. His acclaimed New York Times business bestseller The Power of Now: How Winning Companies Sense and Respond to Change Using Real-time Technology (1999) has been widely used in academia and been the subject of numerous interviews. His subsequent book, The Power to Predict (2006), shows the impact of predictive business on mainstream companies from Procter & Gamble to Harrah's and reveals how companies can break new ground in their quest to anticipate customers' needs, create new opportunities, and predict and sidestep unwelcome surprises.

Mr. Ranadivé has appeared as a featured expert on real-time computing on CNBC and in publications such as The Economist, Fast Company, and Red Herring. Mr. Ranadivé has consistently been recognized as a visionary for the future of business integration, securing him a place in InfoWorld's 2002 Top Ten Technology Innovators. He was recognized by Ernst & Young as a 2002 Software Entrepreneur of the Year. In 2008, he was named the South Asian CEO of the Year by SAMBAA. He was also featured in “Annals of Innovation: How David Beats Goliath,” a New Yorker article by Malcolm Gladwell, author of The Tipping Point and Outliers, as an example of innovators who win by “breaking the rules.”

Prior to founding TIBCO, Mr. Ranadivé was president and founder of a UNIX consulting company. Previously, he held management and engineering positions with Ford Motor Company, M/A-Com Linkabit, and Fortune Systems. Mr. Ranadivé is a frequent presenter on such topics as the future of integration, enabling real-time business, and unleashing the power of information across enterprises to become more competitive.
