This chapter focused on topics related to streamed and temporal events. Events are raised from multiple sources, and to get insights in real time about activities and their related events, services such as Event Hubs and Stream Analytics play a significant role. Event Hubs is a service that helps in ingesting millions of events per second and temporally storing them. This data can be sent to Stream Analytics for processing. During processing, additional insights can be fetched using custom queries, and these insights then can be sent as outputs to multiple destinations. These services work on real-time data that isn't stored in any permanent storage.
In the next chapter, we will go through creating an IoT solution using Azure IoT Hub and explore its various features.
