Azure Event Hubss service and concepts
Nowadays, we gather more and more data, which must be aggregated, processed, and stored somewhere. This implies using services that can handle increasing loads, scale to growing demands, and offer the smallest latency available. All of these requirements are often mentioned when building so-called big data pipelines—parts of a system designed to process as much data as possible, so it is later accessible by tools such as Hadoop, Spark, ML, AI, and more.
