Azure Event Hubs represents the "front door" for an event pipeline, often called an event ingestor in solution architectures. An event ingestor is a component or service that sits between event publishers and event consumers to decouple the production of an event stream from the consumption of those events.

Event Hub Client

An Event Hub client is the primary interface for developers interacting with the Event Hubs client library.

Event Hub Producer

A type of client that serves as a source of telemetry data, diagnostics information, usage logs, or other log data, as part of an embedded device solution, a mobile device application, a game title running on a console or other device, some client or server based business solution, or a web site.

Event Hub Consumer

An Event Hub consumer is a type of client which reads information from the Event Hub and allows processing of it. Processing may involve aggregation, complex computation and filtering.

Partition

A partition is an ordered sequence of events that is held in an Event Hub. Partitions are a means of data organization associated with the parallelism required by event consumers.

Consumer Group

A consumer group is a view of an entire Event Hub. Consumer groups enable multiple consuming applications to each have a separate view of the event stream, and to read the stream independently at their own pace and from their own position.

Event Recievers

Any entity that reads event data from an event hub.
