- Overview - What is IBM Business Automation Insights?
IBM Business Automation Insights is a platform-level component that provides visualization insights to business owners and that feeds a data lake to infuse artificial intelligence into IBM Digital Business Automation. - Getting started with IBM Business Automation Insights
The Getting started guides you through four high-level tasks to install Business Automation Insights on IBM Cloud Private. The example installation uses IBM Event Streams as the Kafka provider and the embedded version of Elasticsearch and Kibana. - Updating your Business Automation Insights deployment
You can update your IBM Business Automation Insights system by passing new configuration property values on the Helm command line. - Deleting a Helm release
You can uninstall a IBM Business Automation Insights release by deleting it. - Configuring event emitters
After IBM Business Automation Insights is configured, you install and configure the emitter that you need to send raw events to ingestion jobs. You can later update the configuration. - Securing communications from event emitters to Kafka
Options are available to configure and secure communications from event emitters to your Kafka server. - Moving to production
When you are satisfied with your test environment and are ready to move to production, some security and scalability settings are necessary. - Operating Business Automation Insights
After you have configured Business Automation Insights and start working with it, you can further tune your configuration for operation with Apache Flink and Elasticsearch. You can also monitor and troubleshoot jobs. - Preparing your cluster for fault tolerance
To ensure recovery from possible job failures, IBM Business Automation Insights uses Apache Flink checkpoints and savepoints, and high availability mode. You can restart a job from a previous checkpoint or savepoint. For some possible failure cases, you can also take preventive steps. - Troubleshooting
If you observe unexpected behaviors, the following pages help you resolve issues. - HDFS data lake
Processing jobs can store data in a Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) data lake. In a typical installation of Business Automation Insights, you set up long term storage in a Hadoop distributed file system (HDFS) data lake for further downstream processing of your business data. - Dashboards
IBM Business Automation Insights provides a set of predefined dashboards, with their underlying visualizations and searches. - Samples
New in 18.0.2 Use the provided samples to become familiar with IBM Business Automation Insights concepts and as a starting point for your own work on your business data. - Machine learning with Business Automation Insights
Examples in the form of Jupyter Notebooks show how to take the most benefit of business data that IBM Business Automation Insights stores in Hadoop file system (HDFS). - Securing communications and data
Securing your environment, especially in production mode, is a major aspect of setting up your IBM Business Automation Insights system. - Reference for Business Automation Insights
