Event Streams. The CTO is interested in this IBM offering, but asks you if they need to purchase all
Points out of
the components. How would you respond?
1.00

Flag question

moment.

Event Processing takes raw events and makes them relevant to a business context, so 
users can be empowered to work with relevant business events to identify and act on
situations in the moment.

but does not have dynamic message translation.

Solace is very inexpensive, but they have an inactive community and support is often delayed.

Question 21 Your client is interested in Event Streams, but is concerned about having a simple disaster recovery
Correct
(DR) solution. How would you respond?

Points out of
1.00 The region-mirroring feature in Event Streams makes DR simple, as it is not based on any
Flag question open-source project but an IBM innovation.

The region-mirroring feature in Event Streams makes DR simple, as it creates copies of all
topics automatically that clients don't even need to select.

The geo-replication feature in Event Streams makes DR simple, as it is based on IBM project

Points out of Amazon MSK

1.00
Amazon Kinesis
Flag question
Azure Event Hubs

Amazon Aurora 

Question 25 You are in an engagement with a client where the client is complaining that IBM is missing event
Incorrect
distribution capabilities in their offering. How do you respond?

Points out of
1.00 IBM’s roadmap includes investments to expand the Event Integration portfolio to include 

Flag question stream processing capabilities. This will be delivered using well established open
technologies in line with IBM’s overall approach. IBM will also provide a low code user
experience to broaden the range of users that can take advantage of this.

Competitors may point to Event Streams being restricted to RedHat OpenShift deployment
only. IBM’s roadmap includes expanding platform support to deploy RedHat UBI containers to
other Kubernetes implementations. Some competitors support bare metal deployment, but
this has not emerged as an important requirement expressed by the market.

IBM Event Streams includes Kafka Connect, opening a vast set of community connectors. IBM
directly supports a subset of commonly used connectors, and they can add to this quickly
based on demand. Customers with access to IBM App Connect can also take advantage of its
large array of industry and technology connectors.

Competitors will point to some proprietary capabilities that IBM Event Streams does not
provide, such as stretch clusters and tiered storage. IBM will continue to work in the
community to add important features in the open. IBM has found that most clients do not
require the more niche features being highlighted.
