Brokers¶
Brokers are Kubernetes custom resources that define an event mesh for collecting a pool of events. Brokers provide a discoverable endpoint for event ingress, and use Triggers for event delivery. Event producers can send events to a broker by POSTing the event.

Triggers¶
After an event has entered a broker, it can be forwarded to subscribers by using Triggers. Triggers allow events to be filtered by attributes, so that events with particular attributes can be sent to Subscribers that have registered interest in events with those attributes.
Subscribers¶
A Subscriber can be any URL or Addressable resource. Subscribers can also reply to an active request from the Broker, and can respond with a new event that is sent back into the Broker.
