We've decided to use an event driven architecture because unlike the legacy system (edx-proctoring), edx-exams is an independent service.
As such, we plan to use the event bus to send info to edx-platform services without needing a response as one would in a REST framework.

Below are lists of downstream effects of exam submission and review that we will or will not be impementing as downstream effects that will be
triggered by events emitted in edx-exams per this decision.
Below are lists of expected downstream effects of exam submission and review. We have decided to implement some downstream effects and not others; these decisions are enumerated below. Those that will be implemented will be triggered by events emitted by the edx-exams service, as described in this decision.

Downstream effects to be implemented:
***********************************************
Downstream effects to be implemented as part of this decision:
**************************************************************

* Grades Override - A python API call to the grades app to generate a grade override when an exam attempt is rejected.

* Undo Grades Override - A python API call to the grades app to delete a grade override when marking a rejected attempt as verified.

* Instructor Delete Attempt - A python API call to the instructor app to delete an exam attempt.

* Instructor Complete Attempt - A python API call to the instructor app to mark an exam subsection as completed.
* Mark Exam Subsection Completed - A python API call to a function in the instructor app that causes the exam subsection to be marked as completed.

* Invalidate Certificate - A python API call to the certificates app to invalidate a leaner’s edx certificate for a course.
