How an Event Mesh Works in PLM Scenarios
- Event-enable PLM objects.
- Get PLM objects onto an event mesh.
- The event mesh streams relevant event notifications to applications in real-time.
Advantages of an Event Mesh
Technical Advantages
- PLM updates are pushed vs. pulled: downstream applications get real-time data updates instead of waiting for periodic batch updates.
- Simplified architecture is easier to manage and scale:event streaming using the publish-subscribe pattern instead of point-to-point connections or constant polling.
- Assured data delivery: an event mesh queues and throttles events during bursts in activity for guaranteed, exactly-once delivery.
Business Value
- More efficient product lifecycle and quality management, improved costs: quality management is streamlined and redundant processes or duplicate data are eliminated.
- Faster time to market: new products can be developed and launched faster, with better and more efficient communication and collaboration.
- Accelerated product innovation.
