Abstract
An event management service (EMS) of a distributed computing environment includes a filter mechanism for determining whether events generated by one or more event suppliers are communicated to one or more event consumers. Each event consumer that registers for the service also defines an event filter group that determines whether particular events generated by the one or more event suppliers are communicated to that event consumer. The event filter group is derived from one or more predefined event type schemas and/or event header information. Events supplied to the service are applied through a parser of the filter mechanism to control whether and where a particular event is routed.
