Abstract
A probabilistic data structure such as a bloom filter may be used to provide a space efficient representation of rules that define events of interest to sources and may be used to reduce the number of events ingested by an event bus system. An event bus system may generate a probabilistic data structure based on the rules that may be used at the event source as a filter. The probabilistic data structure predetermines whether the events to be sent to the event bus system will be of interest to any event targets and if an event is of no interest to any of the event targets, the event will not be sent.
