Publication number: 20240129230Abstract: The subject matter includes an event-based routing system including an Event Router Domain Rules Language Compiler that parses and compiles a Domain Event Router rules file into Event Router rules instructions. An Event Router ingests incoming event data and applies the Event Router rules instructions. An Event Router Management component manages the Event Router, where the Event Router includes a single Event Router or a network of multiple Event Routers. A Domain Registry registers domain definitions and provides the domain definitions to the Event Router Domain Rules Language Compiler and a Domain Endpoint Resolver. The Domain Endpoint Resolver stores IP addresses, ports, and names of domains for which the Event Router receives event data, as well as the domain names of the Event Routers. The event data are formatted in an event message format comprising a tuple of at least: a Domain, an Entity, an Attribute, and a Value.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Bernard Behan Mouton, Bertrand Mouton, Simon Paul Shortman
