Azure Event Hub Source Configuration
Azure Event Hub Source Configuration
- Prerequisites:
- The Azure Event Hub namespace must be in the Standard or higher tier.
- Enable Kafka interface (Microsoft provides configuration instructions).
- Configuration Fields:
- Shared Access Policy: A policy with Listen permissions on the Event Hub (not a namespace-level policy).
- Connection String: Primary or secondary key from the shared access policy.
- Consumer Group: A dedicated group for each pipeline (create a new one if existing groups are in use).
- Event Hub Name: List of Event Hubs to read from (comma-separated).
- Decoding Type: Choose between Bytes or JSON.
- Save: Click Save to activate the source.
Important Notes:
- A new consumer group starts reading from the beginning of the Event Hub’s retention period.
- Verify data flow by checking if active logs are ingested into Mezmo.
