Configure DES data source
You can use Digital Event Services (DES) as data sources for MashZone NextGen Explorer.
DES data sources can be made available to MashZone NextGen Explorer by a two-stage process.
1. A microservice (DesEventBroker) usually hosted by the MashZone NextGen Explorer instance creates a DES instance, subscribes for events of a configured type and writes them to a topic hosted by a Kafka instance.
2. A JSON file describing the real-time data source is deployed to the VA instance.
