Event Portal Enhancement Package

Hi all,

We’re excited to announce a comprehensive set of enhancements to Event Portal that significantly expand integration capabilities, improve visual customization, and streamline the developer experience. This release introduces powerful new webhooks functionality, enhanced branding options, multi-environment application management, and a redesigned user experience for application lifecycle management.

:rocket: New Features

1. REST Delivery Points (RDPs) Support: Event-to-HTTP Bridge Capability
Transform your event-driven architecture into REST-compatible integrationsEvent Portal now supports RDPs (Webhooks) that seamlessly convert event-driven messages into HTTP REST calls, enabling you to:

  • Trigger External Services: Automatically invoke HTTP callbacks to third-party services when events occur

  • Push Events to REST-Based Services: Bridge the gap between modern event streaming and traditional REST APIs

  • Connect Modern Events to Legacy APIs: Integrate your event-driven applications with existing REST-based systems without code changes

  • Enable Instant Delivery: Provide real-time event notifications to web and mobile applications through standard HTTP endpoints

This feature eliminates the complexity of building custom bridges between event streams and HTTP-based services, accelerating integration timelines and reducing development overhead.

2. Custom Icons, Logos, and Colors
Bring your brand identity into Event Portal visualizationsTransform your Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) diagrams with comprehensive visual customization:

  • Rich Visual Representations: Create detailed, branded visualizations of your event-driven architectures

  • Predefined Graphics Libraries: Choose from extensive collections of application icons and logos to represent your services accurately

  • Comprehensive Color Customization: Apply custom color schemes to applications, events, and application domains for improved visual organization

  • Enhanced Communication: Generate professional, branded diagrams perfect for both internal documentation and external stakeholder presentations

These visual enhancements make it easier to communicate complex event architectures to both technical and business audiences while maintaining brand consistency.

3. Multi-Environment Application Support
Manage application configurations across all your deployment environmentsEvent Portal now provides complete multi-environment application management capabilities:

  • Centralized Environment Management: Manage development, staging, production, and custom environment configurations from a single interface

  • Runtime Configuration Control: Maintain separate configuration sets for each environment while preserving application design consistency

  • Environment-Specific Deployments: Promote applications between environments with environment-appropriate configurations

  • Operational Visibility: Monitor and manage application behavior across all deployment targets

This enhancement provides the operational control needed for enterprise-grade event-driven application lifecycle management.

4. Redesigned Application Management Experience
Streamlined workflow for developers at every skill levelThe new Designer experience revolutionizes how developers interact with Event Portal:

  • Beginner-Friendly Interface: Simplified creation and configuration workflows help developers new to EDA get started quickly

  • Guided Application Promotion: Step-by-step processes for moving applications through development lifecycle stages

  • Advanced Options Preserved: Experienced developers retain access to all advanced configuration and management capabilities

  • Intuitive Management Tools: Enhanced interfaces for ongoing application maintenance and updates

This redesign ensures that Event Portal scales with your team’s expertise while maintaining the powerful capabilities that advanced users require.
