Software AG Designer is an Eclipse-based graphical development tool that offers an Events Development perspective for developing event types. You create and edit event types within event type projects. You can use predefined event types in your projects.

Event types are suite-wide assets. You deploy them to a run-time repository called the Event Type Store, which is shared by all products that support EDA. The objects needed to support the event types are automatically created during deployment. After an event type is deployed, any product can produce or consume events based on that event type.

You can store event type projects in the Software AG Designer workspace, and deploy them from Software AG Designer to the Event Type Store. You can also store event type projects in a version control system and use Deployer and the Asset Build Environment to deploy them to the Event Type Store. You can govern your event types using CentraSite.
