K2 Notification Event - Overview

The Notification Event provides the functionality to notify via e-mail when specific events are executed on servers, implementing a custom event record. The execution of events from servers are recorded via the Custom Event Recorder. The Custom Event Recorder subscribes to specific server events through event handlers and raises the event in the Generic Client recorder. The Generic Client Recorder registered custom events belonging to the executing event, resolves actions from the custom event and handles the queuing of resolved events. The queuing of events is processed using MSMQ. Transactional queue’s are received from the client recorder to be persisted to the Event database. The Event database receives events from the Queuing System (MSMQ) and saves event mappings to the database for processing. Resolved data gets mapped to action policies which in turn sends the configured e-mail or actions the custom event.
