Knative Eventing API

The Knative Eventing API extends Kubernetes with custom resources for building event-driven architectures. It provides two main patterns: Broker and Trigger for cloud-native event routing with filtering, and Channel and Subscription for pub/sub messaging. Event sources such as ApiServerSource, PingSource, and SinkBinding connect external event producers to the eventing mesh. All events conform to the CloudEvents specification. Resources are served through the Kubernetes API server under the eventing.knative.dev and messaging.knative.dev API groups.
