A method is provided for performing an action, in a distributed environment, upon occurrence of a monitored event related to a set of data elements. The method includes providing a rule that includes an event identification component which specifies an event to be monitored and an action component which specifies an action to be performed when the event has occurred. The method also includes determining, from the rule, if the event identification component is to be evaluated by a remote event engine and if the action component is to be evaluated by the remote event engine, evaluating the event identification component and the action component of the rule.
