Getting Started with Apama EPL
Apama Event Processing Language (EPL) is an event-driven programming language. It lets you write applications that:
*Monitor streams of events to find particular events or patterns of events of interest
*Analyze events (or patterns of events) of interest to determine whether some action is appropriate
*Perform actions based on particular events or patterns of events
This section discusses the main concepts you must understand to write applications in EPL.
