The REST event emitter is a public API that you use to
synchronously publish events
for IBM® Business Monitor to
process.
For IBM Business Monitor V8.5.5, two versions
of the REST event emitter are available.
- When you are creating events for IBM Business Monitor V8.5.5, use the REST
event emitter that sends the events in XML format to the monitor model
application.
- If you are using events that were created for earlier versions
of IBM Business Monitor,
you can use the REST event emitter that wraps the event XML in a Common
Base Event envelope. This event emitter places the event XML into
the xs:any slot of the Common Base Event. The REST
event emitter then submits the Common Base Event to the common event
infrastructure (CEI) server, which forwards the event to the monitor
model application.

related reference.

in an ND topology, see the related reference.
