ODPi Egeria is written in Java. It is accessible through Java Clients, REST APIs and the open event infrastructures such as Apache Kafka. The event payloads are JSON structures that are closely related to the JSON payloads used in the REST APIs.
The deployment of of the code libraries are implemented using docker and helm charts.
