Usage Patterns for Events

The following two usage patterns are available for events:

Queue pattern

Every event is delivered to a single consumer. You must mark the event accordingly on the sending side (deliver to single subscriber). Events of this type are cleared as soon as they are delivered or expire.

Note: This pattern affects triggers; see the Content Administrator Guide for more information.

Notification Mechanism

The event is intended to signal a state to an arbitrary number of interested parties. For instance, a notification signifies that something has changed, a system is shutting down, and so on. Such an event is delivered once to all subscribers, until the event times out.
