GERM (Generic Event Replication Monitor) is designed to verify that a set of events have been replicated correctly to multiple destinations. The original use was to verify that employees hired (or terminated) had accounts created (or disabled) in multiple applications, like a directory, email, app db, etc. This usually involves querying a database for a set of "events" to check (such as from the HR database for all employees hired within the last 30 days), then query a set of destinations (via JDBC, LDAP, or custom) to verify the data from the source event exists and matches in each destination.

See included Readme for additional info.
