Use Events as Information Sources

To use events as information sources, you must create EDA or Apama event sources. Unlike other sources, only MashZone NextGen administrators can create EDA and Apama event sources for other users to work with.

To create these sources, administrators must create event sources as needed. MashZone NextGen retrieves event data from these event sources when users run the corresponding EDA or Apama event source. If views for the event source are real-time views, events are pushed to the view automatically.

You can also Manage Apama Event Sources and Manage EDA Event Sources.
