With [Mendix Business Events](https://marketplace.mendix.com/link/component/202649), applications can signal when something important happens, and can independently subscribe to these events if they want to be informed. Business events are like a mailing list to share event notifications between apps. The key difference between business events and traditional communication between apps, like REST or Web Services, is that there is no direct communication between the different apps.

To deliver these events reliably between your applications, an event broker is required. For apps running the Mendix cloud on licensed nodes, you'll need to purchase a license for a [Mendix Event Broker](#mendix-event-broker).
