In the complex event processing language, an event stream name is expressed as the event types that are included in an event stream. In this manual, event stream name and event type (name) have similar meanings.
The following rules apply to event stream names:
The first character must be alphabetic (a to z or A to Z).
The second and subsequent characters can be alphabetic (a to z or A to Z), numerics (0 to 9), or underscores (_).
The reserved words listed in the table at "1.1.5 Reserved Words" cannot be used regardless of case.
Note that event stream names are case-sensitive.
Complex Event Processing uses the "development asset ID" specified in an "event type definition" as the input event stream name. If the "development asset ID" does not conform to the above rules, enclosing it between backquote symbols (`) allows its use as an event stream name.
