Azure Event Hubs for .NET 2 Developers: Fundamentals
Azure Event Hubs is a telemetry ingestion service to collect millions of events. This course will teach you how to use Event Hubs, including sending and receiving events in .NET, using Stream Analytics, and triggering Azure Functions and Logic Apps.
What you'll learn
At the core of building a hyper-scalable event-processing solution in Azure is a thorough knowledge of how to use Azure Event Hubs. In this course, Azure Event Hubs for .NET 2 Developers: Fundamentals, you will learn the skills you need to create a full event-processing pipeline in Azure. First, you will learn how to set up an Azure Event Hub and how to send and receive events in a .NET application. Next, you will discover how to build a real-time dashboard with Stream Analytics and Power BI. Finally, you will explore how to archive the events for long-time storage and how to trigger Azure Functions and Azure Logic Apps with events from an Event Hub. When you’re finished with this course, you will have a foundational understanding of Azure Event Hubs that will help you immensely as you move forward and create your own .NET applications and IoT solutions that use Azure Event Hubs to collect and store millions of events.
