Event Hubs
Azure Event Hubs is a hyper-scale data ingestion service, fully-managed by Microsoft, that enables you to collect, store and process trillions of events from websites, apps, IoT devices, and any stream of data.

Allow Secondary EventHub's tags to be updated via ARM/PS/Policies
When setting up Azure policy for tag inheritance, you cannot exclude secondary namespaces, even though by definition the secondary namespaces cannot be updated under any circumstances. So when you do an automated deployment the policy kicks in and deployment fails wit the error "Cannot update a namespace that is secondary".
The only suggested way to get around this from Microsoft is to break the pairing (10 minutes) delete secondary namespace's event hubs (2-5 minutes) and set up tags enable pairing gain (10 minutes). I am setting this as the baseline, and it turns out it will be at least 25…

Built-in Capture feature of Event Hub should preserve milliseconds in EnqueuedTimeUTC system property
When activating the built-in capture feature in Event Hub, messages are stored in Blobs using AVRO format. In AVRO, system prop EnqueuedTimeUTC is serialized as a string, and the odd part is that milliseconds are not there. Basically, capture feature is truncating the original information, which it should not do

Allow adding metadata/description for Consumer Groups
Sometimes, we have consumer groups created for a specific purpose, but it is not very clear with the names (as some of them are GUID's) so we end up creating some more and it ends up a mess. Having a description on the consumer group it makes it easier to identify what is what and maybe easier to clean up even if we had information like "test CG delete later" or something. This is an existing feature in a Secret in KeyVaults.

Support Event Hub GeoDR Alias as a Monitoring-Logging Endpoint
Geo Recovery DR Aliases are a tool that create a failover group between Primary and Secondary EH Namespaces.
Also, diagnostic settings can be applied to resources and can be streamed to Event Hubs as an endpoint. However, it is not possible currently to send logs to an Event Hub GeoDR Alias, that would end up in Primary Namespace, and would switch to Secondary namespace if the first is offline. Similar behavior of that of a SQL Failover Group.
This feature would be ideal and would solve the issue of resources not being able to write to an Event Hub in…

Hide Dedicated Cluster Internal Namespace from Metrics
Currently, the dedicated cluster picks up the internal monitoring namespace traffic into the aggregated metrics. As this is the only place that the internal workings shows up, it is confusing to see thousands of messages ingress into a cluster with no user defined namespaces or hubs on it.
The internals should either be hidden and abstracted, or separated out from user metrics.

Clear Dedicated Cluster Metrics on Creation
Currently, when a new cluster is created, it shows metrics from notably before its creation timestamp which is confusing.
New clusters should only show metrics related to workloads that occurred on them from their creation time forward.

Allow Dedicated Clusters to be Deleted on Demand
Currently, if you deploy a dedicated cluster you have to wait four hours to delete it. If the four hour window is related to the minimum billing period, the cluster should still be able to be deleted (even though you will be billed for it).
If it's not tied to the billing window, it would be nice to be able to pend the delete until whatever technical systems are ready and then let the system take over, rather than letting it fail.

Allow more than 10 hubs per event hub namespace
Event hub namespaces have a hard limit of 10 hubs. It would be great to be able to raise that limit to 100 or 1000 or whatever via a support request.
We use Azure Event Hubs with Kafka. A namespace for us is a kafka server and a hub is a kafka topic. Now we have to split topics per kafka server based on Azure's 10 hubs hard limit, which is counterintuitive and complicates our setup.

Add aliasPrimaryConnectionString to Event Hubs ARM reference() object
Use case: Output from ARM template the primary connection string of an event hub geo-DR alias. Similar to the 'primaryConnectionString' property, but using the alias primary connection string.
For example, "[reference(....).primaryConnectionString]" works for the non-alias connection string, but "[reference(....).aliasPrimaryConnectionString]" doesn't exist.
Here's the error if you try it:
The language expression property 'aliasPrimaryConnectionString' doesn't exist, available properties are 'primaryConnectionString, secondaryConnectionString, primaryKey, secondaryKey, keyName'..

Kafka protocol prevents connections from closing after a GeoDR failover
Event Hub Disaster Recovery needs manual intervention of restarting the application to start pushing messages to secondary namespace as kafka protocol prevents connections from closing after triggering failover.
It would be nice if the kafka can automatically have a new connection at the time of failover.

Remove the EventHub Message Size limit of 1MB
Currently we have a size limit on the incoming messages on an EventHub as 1MB. Some processes batch the messages before sending them, to avoid making several POST requests. Even though the batch size is small as 10, the size is unpredictable when the message is sent, as it hits the 1MB mark. Please could we remove the size limit or at least increase the limit form 1MB to 5MB/10MB?
Kafka does not have a size limit. Google has a limit of 10MB.

Provide Event Hub viewer / explorer
It would be good if some sort of viewer/explore was provided for looking at the events within an Event Hub. This could be done either via the portal or Azure Storage Explorer.
When developing I currently use https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Summer.azure-event-hub-explorer to view events as they are produced.
However, it would be good if a tool existed that let you browse events within the retention period. With the possibility to query by timestamp & partition key. As well as the event body, it would be good to be able to see the properties and other metadata.
We use Event Hub as the integration…

Diagnostic setting should allow EventHub SAS policy instead of Namespace SAS policy
In Diagnostic setting for any resource when sending events to EventHub it allows only namespace SAS policy. It will be good if it allows EventhHub SAS Policy.
Also today the option should say “EventHub Namespace policy name” instead of “Event hub policy name” as it confuses many users.

Allow Event Capture to output in different file formats
Currently event capture only supports writing in avro. It would be nice to support other file formats for processing e.g JSON and parquet.
