What's New

The What's New topic lists new and revised features of TIBCO BusinessEvents Version 5.4.0 compared to the previous version with reference to documentation.

TIBCO Live Datamart Integration

TIBCO LiveView Web provides various visualizations, such as, charts, bars, graphs, and so on, to represent the data in real time. Using TIBCO LiveView Web now you can also perform aggregations over the data from the BusinessEvents project. The visualizations are updated in real time based on the changes to the underlying entities of the BusinessEvents project (concept, event, or metrics).

Note: The Live Datamart plugin for TIBCO BusinessEvents is available only in the TIBCO BusinessEvents Enterprise edition.

For more information, see TIBCO BusinessEvents and TIBCO Live Datamart Integration and Adding a LiveView Agent to the BusinessEvents Project.

Docker Support

TIBCO BusinessEvents application can now be run in a Docker container. Docker provides a way to run applications securely isolated in a container, packaged with all its dependencies and libraries. Your application can run in any environment as all the dependencies are already present in the image of the application.

For more information, see Dockerize TIBCO BusinessEvents.

Channel API

TIBCO BusinessEvents now bundles Java API to create a custom channel. If you want to use a channel other than the channels provided with TIBCO BusinessEvents, use the com.tibco.be.custom.channel package interfaces and classes to create a new custom channel.

For more information, see Custom Channel and Java API Reference.

Remote Client

TIBCO BusinessEvents now enables its non-cache agents to connect to the cluster as remote members through a cache agent, that acts as a proxy. A remote client acts as a node without actually being a member of the cluster. Instead of being directly connected to space, it is connected through a proxy - typically through a cache-agent.

For more information, see Remote Client.

Unit Testing

You can now author unit tests for BusinessEvents application using BEUnit (a JUnit based extension). JUnit is a unit testing framework for the Java programming language. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks.

For more information, see Unit Testing Using JUnit and Java API Reference.
