Configure how to receive events

You can configure how events flow from applications to the Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) as well as how they flow from CEI to IBM Business Monitor.

• Asynchronous event considerations
  The flow from an emitting application to the common event infrastructure (CEI) can be synchronous or asynchronous. With synchronous event transmission, an application waits for successful event delivery before proceeding with the rest of its transaction. With asynchronous event transmission, an application places events on a queue and proceeds with processing.
• Receiving events from CEI
  In IBM Business Monitor, you can choose to receive events from the inbound Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) server using two different transport types: JMS (queue-based) and table-based (also known as queue bypass).
