An event mesh is an architectural layer that allows events from one application to be dynamically routed and received by any other application, no matter where these applications are deployed (no cloud, private cloud, public cloud). You create an event mesh by deploying and connecting event brokers (a modern form of messaging middleware).

An event mesh enables you to stream master data changes across your enterprise in real-time.

How an Event Mesh Works in MDM Scenarios

  1. Master data changes are transmitted to the event mesh.
  2. The event mesh streams relevant event notifications to downstream applications in real-time.

Advantages of an Event Mesh

Technical Advantages

  • Master data changes are pushed vs. pulled: downstream applications get real-time data updates versus waiting for periodic batch updates.
  • Master data distribution is filtered: downstream applications only receive the data they’ve subscribed to.
  • Master data is always in sync between different systems/LOBs: LOBs have real-time access to the latest data.

Business Value

  • Improved product life-cycle management, asset utilization, supply chain efficiency.
  • Streamlined business processes, better decision making.
  • Enhanced agility.
