Event Generation

When a candidate becomes an event, the SmartEvent Correlation Unit forwards the event to the Event Database. But to discover an event does not mean that SmartEvent stops to track logs related to it. The SmartEvent Correlation Unit adds matching logs to the event as long as they continue to arrive during the event threshold. To keep the event open condenses what can appear as many instances of the same event to one, and provides accurate, up-to-date information as to the start and end time of the event.
