+# 40. Konflux should send cloud events all system events.
+
+Date: 2024-09-24
+
+## Status
+
+Proposed
+
+## Context
+
+Konflux had made the architectural decision to not use cloud events. However, that does not mean that
+Konflux should not emit cloud events.
+
+Emitting cloud events would allow Konflux users to easily track what is happening in the system. In addition,
+they can use these cloud events to create their own product-specific infrastructure to support their build
+and release process.
+
+To support this, all Konflux components should be required to emit cloud events for signicant events. These
+should be documented fully and made available for users.
+
+Cloud event generation could be optional and that option could default to off. But users should be able to
+turn it on so that Konflux will generate cloud events that they can then act on.
+
+Note again that this ADR does not propose that Konflux generate cloud events for consumption by Konflux
+itself. Rather it proposes Konflux generate cloud events to support addtional product-specific build and
+release functionality outside of Konflux.
+
+## Decision
+
+All Konflux components shall generate cloud events for significant events.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Product teams can more easily build product-specific build and release infrastructure in Konflux.
