# Events

External events work as triggers for value stream to run or wake up sleeping processes. These events, such as notifications regarding stock levels, quote requests, and many others, are transmitted as authenticated webhooks to a pre-configured Orchestration Engine event-receiver endpoint. When receiving these notifications, the system interprets them and initiates, or wakes, relevant value stream accordingly. This approach enables real-time adaptation and decision-making, allowing businesses to efficiently manage resources and respond to changing conditions in their operational environment, creating business agility.

OE is schema-less, it utilizes the Cloud Event specification for both receiving and sending events. This framework enables OE to seamlessly gather event information from designated endpoints responsible for transmitting such data. By adhering to this specification, OE ensures efficient and standardized communication, facilitating seamless integration with various systems and endpoints.

For details about events in OE, check the following documentation:
