Runtime Event Manager

Runtime Event Manager enables you to create models of your event-driven architecture (EDA) using objects created in Designer or runtime data collected from your event brokers.

What you do in Runtime Event Manager depends on how you are using Event Portal:

• As a design-first tool to create, model, and manage your EDAs.

• As a discover-first tool to audit existing EDAs and model updates before you implement them.

Which functionality you use depends on your preferences, security requirements, and the current maturity level of your existing EDA.

If you are using Runtime Event Manager as a design-first tool, you:

• Create and manage modeled event meshes to design your event driven architecture.

• Add event brokers, applications, and events to modeled event meshes to design your runtime.

• Create and manage configuration templates to help users set Solace event broker queue configurations and client profile names in applications.

• Review requests to promote applications and application updates to modeled event meshes.

If you are using Runtime Event Manager as a discover-first tool, you:

• Discover runtime data from event brokers.

• Audit runtime data against your modeled event meshes to ensure your runtime matches your design.

• Import Solace queues and Kafka consumer groups, topics, and subjects into Designer as applications, events, and schemas.

Using Runtime Event Manager

Only users with the Administrator and Event Portal Manager roles can use the full functionality of Runtime Event Manager. Event Portal Users can see the list of modeled event meshes and can view or manage modeled event meshes if they have been given additional access to the environment that the modeled event mesh resides in. For more information, see Setting User Access to Environments.

To open Runtime Event Manager, perform these steps:

1. Log in to the Solace Cloud Console if you have not done so yet. The URL to access the Cloud Console differs based on your authentication scheme. For more information, see Logging In to the Solace Cloud Console.
2. On the navigation bar, select Runtime Event Manager .
3. In Runtime Event Manager, perform one of the following actions:
   • Select the environment that you want to create or manage modeled event meshes in.
   • Click Create Modeled Event Mesh to start creating a new modeled event mesh.
   • Select an existing modeled event mesh to manage it.
   • Click More Actions > Manage Event Management Agents to set up and manage Event Management Agents to connect external event brokers to Event Portal.
   • Click More Actions > Manage Configuration Templates to create or manage templates to configure applications for Solace event brokers.
