32. Events or Messages? Azure Explained
32. Working with Service Bus, Event Hubs, Event Grid, CloudEvents and Relay Service - with Clemens Vasters
In this episode, we talk to Clemens Vasters. He works at Microsoft on the Azure product engineering team. Specifically, he is a Principal Architect for Service Bus, Event Hubs, Event Grid and Relay. We dive into these services, what they can do and how they differ. Clemens explains why and when to use events or messages, and what types of scenarios they fit into; from discrete events and event series to jobs, commands and processing. And we discuss working with CloudEvents in Event Grid. Furthermore, we talk about the origins of the term Red Dog, how Azure emerged, easter eggs, and the Relay Service, which even predates Azure, and the evolution of the service.
About this episode, and Clemens in particular: you can find him on LinkedIn and his website.
