Abstract
A method of acknowledging receipt of an event block object is provided. First connection information for connecting to an event stream processing (ESP) engine executing at a first computing device is received. A first connection to the ESP engine is established using the received first connection information. Second connection information for connecting to a publishing client executing at a second computing device is received. A second connection to the publishing client is established using the received second connection information, wherein the first connection differs from the second connection. An event block object is received from the ESP engine using the established first connection, wherein the event block object includes a unique identifier for the event block object. Successful processing of the event block object is determined. Responsive to the successful processing determination, an acknowledgment message including the unique identifier is sent to the publishing client using the established second connection.
