CloudEvents

Events are everywhere. However, event producers tend to describe events differently. The lack of a common way of describing events means developers must constantly re-learn how to consume events. This also limits the potential for libraries, tooling and infrastructure to aide the delivery of event data across environments, like SDKs, event routers or tracing systems. The portability and productivity we can achieve from event data is hindered overall. CloudEvents is a specification for describing event data in common formats to provide interoperability across services, platforms and systems.
