A StreamBase container is a structure that encapsulates and names a single EventFlow module, complete with Input Stream or adapter entry points and Output Stream or adapter exit points. There is one EventFlow module per container, and each container's name serves as a handle for that module's resources. Multiple containers and modules can be run in a single EventFlow or LiveView engine process, and you can share resources between containers.
Containers displayed in the Cluster view feature a variety of managed entities that vary by application per running node. Drill down as needed to explore configuration details and commands you can run there. The following example shows the left pane's configurable entities for the running Best Bids and Asks sample:
