Event Store

The Event Store component includes XML files that store raw and normalized events that are collected from connectors. Federated access to the events stored in the Event Store XML files is available through the Operations Console. You can run searches to access the appropriate information.

The Event Store is installed with IFW, and Event Store XML files are stored on the same server where the corresponding connector is available. Therefore, if you have different connectors installed on different servers, each connector server includes a separate EventStore folder to store events from the connectors on that server. You can find the XML files under the SOI_HOME\resources\Core\EventStore folder (EI_Home\Core\EventStore in the case of the Event connector).

The EventStore folder also includes two folders: temp and archive. The temp folder contains temporary event files that cache incoming events, and the archive folder contains the archived Event Store XML files.

The following example shows how the information is organized in an Event Store XML file for the normalized and raw version of an event:
