events

A CNCF specification for standardizing event data descriptions to provide interoperability across clouds and SaaS platforms.

CloudEvents (v1.0.2) solves the lack of a common industry format for event metadata. By providing a consistent set of attributes (source, type, and subject), it allows developers to build portable serverless architectures and event-driven systems. Major providers like Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and SAP use this specification to ensure that a trigger from a GitHub webhook or an AWS S3 bucket can be processed by any compliant middleware without custom mapping logic.
