GetAzureEventHub

Description:

Receives messages from Microsoft Azure Event Hubs without reliable checkpoint tracking. In clustered environment, GetAzureEventHub processor instances work independently and all cluster nodes process all messages (unless running the processor in Primary Only mode). ConsumeAzureEventHub offers the recommended approach to receiving messages from Azure Event Hubs. This processor creates a thread pool for connections to Azure Event Hubs.
