Course details
Azure Event Grid is a fully managed intelligent event routing service that allows for uniform event consumption using a publish-subscribe model. This course demonstrates how to react to relevant events across both Azure and non-Azure services in near real-time fashion. Get an overview of Event Grid, and learn how it compares to other routing services: Service Bus, Event Hubs, and Queue Storage. Review the security features, and see how Event Grid handles message delivery when it doesn't get a response from an endpoint. Instructor Sahil Malik then demonstrates a practical use case for the technology, using Event Grid to react to Azure Blog Storage events.
