Event Hubs
Azure Event Hubs handles the heavy lifting of ingesting and processing massive data streams coming from websites, apps, or devices. It acts as a managed pipeline for high-volume telemetry, ensuring that continuous data flows are captured and processed without requiring you to build out your own streaming infrastructure from scratch.
This service suits teams already operating within the Azure ecosystem who need reliable stream ingestion. The main catch is the lack of a free tier; you pay from the start at $0.0150 per hour on a pay-as-you-go basis. There is no trial period to test throughput limits, so budgeting for continuous operational costs is necessary from day one.
