Tencent Cloud service event bus: You can choose the Tencent Cloud service event bus to receive events from the Tencent Cloud services you use.
Custom event bus: It is an event bus created and managed by yourself and is used to receive events generated by your applications. Events of your applications can be published only to your custom event buses.

Event match: matched event pattern, which decides what events can be sent to the associated event targets.
Event target: event processing terminal that consumes events.
