Claim:
1. A computer implemented method for managing events in a distributed fabric, the distributed fabric including distributed infrastructure software on an operating system host, the method comprising: creating events at node agents in the distributed fabric including a plurality of nodes in an event system, wherein the event system includes an event library; wherein each of the node agents is an interface to the event library; wherein each node agent of the node agents is enabled to manage resources of an associated node of the plurality of nodes; wherein each of the node agent of the node agents is enabled to send events created at each respective node agent to a persistence layer of the distributed fabric; wherein the persistence layer is connected to the event library; tagging each of the events at the time of creation of the event with unique increasing sequence number under a lock transaction and tagging the each of the events with one or more channels; wherein the lock transaction ensures a unique sequence of tagging of the events; where the unique increasing sequence number indicates the order of the event relative to other events in the event library; and storing the events in an event segment of the event system, wherein the events are enabled to be retrieved in order based on the unique sequence number and a filter.
