Event Sinks

@Brian Mesick

event-sink-clickhouse is a new type of plugin project, created to listen for Signals and Open edX Events and transform / send them asynchronously to different backends. I just want to socialize this pattern a bit as a way to share platform data in novel ways.

Verifiable Credentials Events

@Edward Zarecor

We have been working on creating support for the Open Badges 3.0 and VC data model into the Credentials IDA. We didn’t think deeply about eventing these new iteractions.

  • How can we have more influence and ensuring are properly added to new features.
