Agent Classes (All OM Types)

Agent class types are as follows:

Cache Agent
 Used only with Cache OM. Cache agents handle distributed cache object storage. A processing unit can contain only one cache agent.
Inference Agent
 Used with all OM types. For inference agent classes, you distribute a project’s resources among the agent classes to define the specific work each agent will do. In Memory OM uses only inference agents, and each agent operates independently. With Cache OM or Store OM, the agents share the data (as explained in TIBCO BusinessEvents Architect’s Guide).
Query Agent
 Query agents use an SQL-like query language. You can query data that is in the cache or store. You can also query data arriving in events, known as event stream processing or ESP.
For details, see TIBCO BusinessEvents Event Stream Processing Query Developer’s Guide.
Process Agent
 Used only with Cache OM and available only if TIBCO BusinessEvents Process Orchestration add-on is used.
