  1. Events Processing Use Case – A Major Consumer Appliance Manufacturer Kal Krishnan Director, Software Development Event Stream Analytics

  2. The Problem • This presentation describes a currently running POC at a major consumer appliance manufacturer • The Event Server infrastructure handles two use cases initially • As the company gains confidence in events processing technology, and the unique value-add that Avaya brings, the use cases will be expanded, and new use cases will be added

  3. The Problem – Use Case #1 • As a "household name brand" company, the client needs to be responsive to changing market conditions • The company manages this by monitoring SAP data, particularly the "Supply-Demand Availability Matrix" • Changes in the "Supply-Demand Availability Matrix" need timely attention to ensure that changing demand patterns and/or supply situations are handled in the most optimal way • Current manual methods are error-prone, and slow-acting

  4. The Problem – Use Case #2 • As with any other stock, the company's stock prices fluctuate from time to time • As a large public company, finance executives may get called on to explain why the change occurred • Currently, such calls may lead to inconsistent messages being given, especially when the root cause may not be apparent to all • The company desires to project a consistent, accurate message to the public

  5. Approach – Use Case #1 • Events are created by the SAP BW infrastructure to reflect changes in the Supply-Demand Availability Matrix • Templatized rules in the Avaya system for events of interest to two parties –Executives, and Partner Account Managers • Executives and Account Managers ("users") log in through a dashboard, are authenticated by the Avaya system, and can set template values (thresholds) to their preference. • Users can also set up different contact rules using the Avaya system, by time of day, day of week etc. • The Avaya systems monitors the events, and sends alerts based on the above preferences

  7. The Approach – Use Case #2 • Monitor the company stock price feed • Set up a set of flexible rules to monitor for "sudden" price and volume movements • Correlate the price movement with news mentions (future) • Use the Avaya system to locate and request a conference among key players • The participants agree on a message, and inform the rest, through the Avaya system

  10. Conclusions • The Avaya Event Processing System has demonstrated value by solving a critical customer problem in a new way • Use of Avaya communications technology enables the integration of human elements into events processing chain • A powerful new concept pioneered by Avaya!
