Notification component for loosely-coupled event handling. Consists of dispatching fired events from EBX® core to concerned subscribers. The event broker is mainly used for monitoring and statistical purposes.

Topic

Corresponds to the EBX® event type that contains messages. The number of subscribers registered to a topic is unlimited.

Subscriber

Client implementation in the modules that receive the events related to the subscribed topic(s).

Topics

Dataspace and snapshot

Corresponds to operations in the dataspace and in the snapshot, such as: create, close, reopen, delete, archive export and archive import (only for dataspace merge).

The event broker is based on a thread pool mechanism. The maximum number of threads can be defined in the properties file as follows:

# guarantee the publication of asynchronous events. 
# The default value is 2
ebx.eventBroker.threadPool.size=2
