US Patent 10423469 Router management by an event stream processing cluster manager

A computing device manages a router to route events between a plurality of computing device based on a manager configuration file. A manager engine is instantiated based on a manager engine definition and instantiates a manager ESPE based on a created manager ESP model. A router configuration file is created based on mapping information read from the manager configuration file that describes connectivity between an event publishing source and a source window of the manager ESPE. A router engine is instantiated based on the created router configuration file. A connector is started to receive an event based on the router configuration file. The event is received in the source window of the manager ESPE defined by the manager ESP model and processed based on the manager ESP model. A third computing device is selected by the router engine. The processed event is published to the third computing device.
