Event Broker Service
The Event Broker Service enables applications to send and deliver events to the appropriate handling agents for processing. A handler can be either of the following:
-
a statically defined process flow that runs in its own thread within the Event Broker Service to process the event. You can use the Foundation Services Manager plug-in to SAS Management Console to define the event and the process flow configuration.
-
an application that has registered itself at run time with the Event Broker Service so that it can receive event notifications.
An Event Broker Service can also format a response to the processing of an event and send it as a reply to the event originator. It is the responsibility of the requester to specify the type of response that is desired: none (fire-and-forget), acknowledgement (acknowledge that the event was received), or result (send a formatted response).
An event is specified as a well-formed XML fragment that contains the name of the event, any associated properties, and a body.
For detailed usage documentation and examples, see com.sas.services.events.broker in the Foundation Services class documentation at http://support.sas.com/92api .
For details about editing the Event Broker Service configuration, see Understanding the Event Broker Service in the SAS Foundation Services: Administrator's Guide.
