Abstract: Techniques for a network-accessible cognitive automation platform for a self-driving application are provided. The platform includes a cognitive operating system, which includes a data crawler configured to discover and extract data stored in internal systems and external third-party systems, a data processing engine configured to cleanse, correlate, link, etc., transactional and unstructured data, and a cognitive data layer (CDL) configured to process the transformed crawled data with various models and algorithmic libraries of metrics, trends, and metadata to identify a root cause of an issue and prescribe actions to mitigate or overcome risks related to the issue. A cognitive development kit is configured to build a specific skill application on top of the cognitive operating system, the specific skill application generating recommendations, actions, and predictions. A search processor and GUI are configured to perform a search request of the data in the CDL and display the results in the GUI.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method, apparatus, and a system for creating business navigation maps comprising a host module linked to at least one computer, and at least one data base and/or data storage device, the host module being adapted to receive data point markers about at least one data point of interest to a user and including a data input link for receiving information about at least one data point of interest, a first logic processing module programmed to associate at least one data point of interest with at least one business report, wherein the logic processing module uses predefined criteria to tag the at least one data point of interest as relevant to the at least one business report; and a database module, the database module being adapted to store and obtain the at least one data point of interest, data point markers, and the at least one business report.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are disclosed for facilitating integration and communication of cloud services and enterprise applications. The disclosed aspects include identifying a port opened by an integration device within an on-premise system to communicate with a cloud system. A persistent connection with the cloud system is maintained via this port so as to provide on-premise access to the cloud system via the integration device, including access to at least one different device within the on-premise system. Aspects for facilitating a bidirectional communication of distributed objects between an on-premise system and a cloud system are also disclosed. Here, on-premise objects residing within the on-premise system are abstracted, and requests from the cloud system to invoke the on-premise objects are facilitated. Similarly, cloud objects residing within the cloud system are abstracted, and requests from the on-premise system to invoke the cloud objects are facilitated.

Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates creating a composite application. A model architecture component can model a business rule utilizing at least one node in a novel hierarchical structure. A run-time engine can automatically create a complex, long-running composite application based at least in part upon the hierarchical node structure such that representative process segments of the application are invoked by the business rule which, in turn, is invoked by internal, externally generated, asynchronous events.
