There is occasionally discussion in the blogosphere around the role of CEP within Capital Markets. Beyond the online chatter, we also hear via offline discussions that Apama comes up in that context, given our strong (arguably dominant) presence in that vertical.

As a follow-up to my colleague Louis' report on last week's SIFMA show, I thought I'd add some thoughts of my own. My conclusion is that it was the most exciting SIFMA show I have experienced. While I think attendance was down from previous years, I also think the quality of attendees was up.

Last week proved to be a busy one for Apama on the marketing front as we issued three separate announcements in conjunction with our presence at the TradeTech show in Paris. Two of the announcements focused on customers, while the third focused on work that a partner is jointly doing with Apama in the area of market surveillance.
