The Events tab provides insight into the information collected in the Abiquo database. Abiquo is tracking all activity on the cloud platform. This provides an audit trail of user activity and also provides insight into infrastructure errors.
 
The Events also provide the foundation of Abiquo’s Accounting system. The platform records certain events, such as VM Deployment, to track resource consumption broken down by enterprise, virtual datacenter, virtual machine, and so on.

Abiquo streams events through the outbound API, so you can build an integration to work with external monitoring tools, for example. Abiquo also has its own Events Notifier tool, which you can easily configure to send emails to selected users based on Abiquo events.
