Prerequisites
-
Python2.7, Python 3.6 or later.
-
Microsoft Azure Subscription: To use Azure services, including Azure Event Hubs, you'll need a subscription. If you do not have an existing Azure account, you may sign up for a free trial or use your MSDN subscriber benefits when you create an account.
-
Event Hubs namespace with an Event Hub: To interact with Azure Event Hubs, you'll also need to have a namespace and Event Hub available. If you are not familiar with creating Azure resources, you may wish to follow the step-by-step guide for creating an Event Hub using the Azure portal. There, you can also find detailed instructions for using the Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, or Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates to create an Event Hub.
-
Azure Storage Account: You'll need to have an Azure Storage Account and create a Azure Table Storage to store the checkpoint data with entities. You may follow the guide [creating an Azure Table Storage Account] (https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/tables/table-storage-overview).
