+== APEX Configuration
+
+An APEX engine can be configured to use various combinations of
+ event input handlers,
+ event output handlers,
+ event protocols,
+ context handlers, and
+ logic executors.
+The system is build using a plugin architecture.
+Each configuration option is realized by a plugin, which can be loaded and configured when the engine is started.
+New plugins can be added to the system at any time, though to benefit from a new plugin an engine will need to be restarted.

+Any combination of input, output, event protocol, context handlers, and executors is possible.
