Knative Eventing¶
Knative Eventing provides you with helpful tools that can be used to create event-driven applications, by easily attaching event sources, triggers, and other options to your Knative Services.
Event-driven applications are designed to detect events as they occur, and process these events by using user-defined, event-handling procedures.

Follow the event path¶
Use the same default namespace and local cluster created in Quickstart installation. If you followed the Serving route, leave hello in place; it is not used by these Eventing lessons.
- Verify the example Broker.
- Deploy the CloudEvents Player and send an event.
- Create a Trigger and observe the event return to the Player.
The Player serves as both the source and sink. You will see a sent event first, then a sent-and-received event after connecting the Trigger.
