'''Complex Event Processing''', or CEP, is a technology for building and managing event-driven information systems. CEP is primaryprimarily a set of programming language constructs that deal with the task of processing multiple streams of event data with the goal of identifying the meaningful events within those streams. CEP employs techniques such as detection of complex patterns of many events, event correlation and abstraction, event hierarchies, and relationships between events such as causality, membership, and timing, and event-driven processes.

CEP provides the core event language processing capabilities for [[Event Stream Processing (ESP)]], or ESP, which includes technologies such as event databases, and event visualization software.
