Scaling and performance optimization
In an era of rapidly growing data and real-time analytics, the ability to scale your event streaming platform becomes crucial. Azure Event Hubs, Microsoft’s fully managed, real-time data ingestion service, is no exception. Scaling and performance optimization are fundamental to maintaining a robust and efficient data pipeline, ensuring your application can handle an increasing workload, accommodate traffic spikes, and deliver events promptly.
We will dive into the art of scaling Azure Event Hubs both vertically and horizontally, optimizing throughput for event processing, and managing consumer groups for effective load distribution. We’ll also look into monitoring and fine-tuning performance metrics, and discuss auto-inflate and auto-expiration policies – features unique to Azure Event Hubs.
By understanding and leveraging these concepts, you’ll be equipped to design and manage scalable, performant, and cost-effective...
