External event format

External events are represented in XML notation. They are shipped in the project for the FTM Dashboard, which is an IBM Business Monitor application.

FTM Events use the following namespace, defined in FTMEvents.xsd:
xmlns:ftm="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/ftm:event:v1_0"
Events for the FTM sample application extend this namespace and define according EventData using a sample event namespace:
xmlns:ftms="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/ftm:event:v1_0:sample" 
xmlns:ftm="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/ftm:event:v1_0:sample"
