Sources, Brokers, and Triggers

As part of the kn quickstart install, an InMemoryChannel-backed Broker is installed on your kind cluster.

Verify that the Broker is installed by running the following command:

  1. kn broker list

Expected output

  1. NAME             URL                                                                                AGE   CONDITIONS   READY   REASON
  2. example-broker   http://broker-ingress.knative-eventing.svc.cluster.local/default/example-broker     5m    5 OK / 5    True

Warning

InMemoryChannel-backed Brokers are for development use only and must not be used in a production deployment.

Next, you’ll take a look at a simple implementation of Sources, Brokers, Triggers and Sinks using an app called the CloudEvents Player.
