Streaming at Scale

The samples shows how to setup an end-to-end solution to implement a streaming at scale scenario using a choice of different Azure technologies. There are many possible way to implement such solution in Azure, following Kappa or Lambda architectures, a variation of them, or even custom ones. Each architectural solution can also be implemented with different technologies, each one with its own pros and cons.

More info on Streaming architectures can also be found here:

• Big Data Architectures: notes on Kappa, Lambda and IoT streaming architectures
• Real Time Processing: details on real-time processing architectures

Here's also a list of scenarios where a Streaming solution fits nicely

• Event-Driven
• CQRS
• Microservices
• Big Data
• Near-Real Time Operational Analytics

A good document the describes the Stream Technologies available on Azure is the following one:

Choosing a stream processing technology in Azure

The goal of this repository is to showcase all the possible common architectural solution and implementation, describe the pros and the cons and provide you with sample script to deploy the whole solution with 100% automation.

Running the samples

Please note that the scripts have been tested on Ubuntu 18 LTS, so make sure to use that environment to run the scripts. You can run it using Docker, WSL or a VM:

• Ubuntu Docker Image
• Windows 10 WSL
• WSL Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
• Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Azure VM

Just do a git clone of the repo and you'll be good to go.

Each sample may have additional requirements: they will be listed in the sample's README.

Streamed Data

Streamed data simulates an IoT device sending the following JSON data:
