The Component Caller API is a component that works as a proxy that makes the ACS / CORBA world in a REST API. This enables different functionality, such as connecting standalone applications, plugins and/or web services to the system.

The Event Converter is a component that serves a pre-configured set of events by converting them from ACS' Notification Channel (Based on CORBA's Notification Service) into Redis PubSub model for unreliable subscribers and into Redis queues for reliable subscribers.
