12. Azure Big Data eventing solutions
Events are everywhere! Any activity or task that changes the state of a work item generates an event. Due to a lack of infrastructure and the non-availability of cheap devices, there previously was not much traction for the Internet of Things (IoT). Historically, organizations used hosted environments from internet service providers (ISPs) that just had monitoring systems on top of them. These monitoring systems raised events that were few and far between.
However, with the advent of the cloud, things are changing rapidly. With increased deployments on the cloud, especially of Platform as a Service (PaaS) services, organizations no longer need much control over the hardware and the platform, and now every time there is a change in an environment, an event is raised. With the emergence of cloud events, IoT has gained a lot of prominence and events have started to take center stage.
