Output connectors

The GeoEvent Server is capable of sending event data it has received to a variety of different destinations. An output connector must know about the communication channel over which it will be sending the data and be able to translate the GeoEvents to an expected format. These tasks are handled by adapters and transports—technical implementations beneath each and every connector.

See Extending GeoEvent Server to learn more about adapters and transports.

Looking for a different connector?

If the connectors available do not provide the flexibility you need, you can customize existing connectors or create your own using GeoEvent Manager or develop your own connectors using the GeoEvent Server Software Development Kit (SDK).

See Extending GeoEvent Server to learn more about customizing or developing your own connectors.
