Events Service
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Events Service tracks resource changes using events that comply with the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) CloudEvents standard. Developers can respond to changes in real-time by triggering code with Functions, writing to Streaming, or sending alerts using Notifications.
Events Service features
Streamlined IT operations
Track changes easily
Oracle Events Service eliminates the complexity of manually tracking changes across cloud resources.
Near real-time response automation
Respond to changes in near real-time using Functions, Notifications, or Streaming.
Intelligent delivery at scale
Events Service manages message delivery at any scale. It attempts to deliver all messages at least once, with multiple retries in case an endpoint is down. Duplicate deliveries of events can happen in some cases. It is architected to handle endpoint outages and latency.
Deep integration
Integrate notifications with infrastructure services
Events Service integrates with numerous Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services, so that customers can track changes across all cloud resources.
Built-in security
Events Service integrates with Identity and Access Management so that customers can define granular user permissions for creating and managing rules.
Seamless interoperability
Compliance with the CloudEvents standard
Events Service is compliant with CNCF CloudEvents for seamless interoperability with the cloud native ecosystem.
Build applications across clouds
Developers can build applications across CloudEvents-compatible cloud providers with minimal refactoring, so that they can focus on building and innovating.
