StreamInsight architecture
Input Adapters
The input adapters translate the incoming events into the event format that the CEP engine 
requires . You can create a typed adapter if the source produces a single event type only, but 
you must create an untyped adapter when the payload format differs across events or is un-
known in advance. In the case of the typed adapter, the payload format is defined in advance 
with a static number of fields and data types when you implement the adapter. By contrast, 
an untyped adapter receives the payload format only when the adapter binds to the query (as 
part of a configuration specification). In the latter case, the number of fields and data types 
can vary with each query instantiation .
