Static Models to Contemporaneous Ontologies

Across all verticals, large scale distributed architectures are transitioning from collections of silo’ed functions to integrated environments enabling atomic activities to interlink into continuously executing processes [1].

Securing observability across both the system architecture and the behaviour executing across these implementations is non-trivial. The current approach of extracting elements of process visibility by analysing historical log files is becoming increasingly anachronistic as implementations modernise to accommodate the demands of AI and digitalisation.

A new approach, able to deliver contemporaneous observability of system and behaviour state simultaneously is required as the existing complex legacy implementations migrate to continuously streaming platforms.

This observability must be bi-directionally coupled to a simulation environment able to analyse proposed system change with high fidelity [2] to ensure any proposed change does not result in non-completing processes and other unintended consequences.
