Hi,

We’d like to push Alerts from SPM (monitoring, alerting, anomaly detection) and Logsene (log management) to Sensu. Are there Java libraries that we could use for that?

Also, after a 140-char exchange with Sean - [https://twitter.com/otisg/status/515521535571161089](https://twitter.com/otisg/status/515521535571161089) - it looks like the only way to _push_ an Alert into Sensu is by talking to one of its clients?

Thanks,

Otis

You can run the ‘client’ component on your ‘sensu-server’. Thus it can be your connection point to pass data in and the client daemon will process the event data.
