What is the Azure Relay service used for?
Answer: Enabling secure hybrid connections between on-premises services and cloud applications without opening inbound firewall ports
Azure Relay enables hybrid connectivity by letting on-premises services expose endpoints to the cloud without firewall changes, using outbound connections only.
Which protocol does Azure Service Bus support for messaging in addition to AMQP?
Answer: HTTP/REST
Azure Service Bus supports both AMQP 1.0 and HTTP/REST protocols, allowing web clients and firewalled environments to send and receive messages via HTTPS.
What does the lock duration property control for Azure Service Bus messages?
Answer: How long a receiver holds exclusive access to a message before it becomes visible again
Lock duration defines how long a consumer has exclusive access to a message after receiving it; if not settled within that time, the lock expires and the message becomes available again.
How do Azure Functions integrate natively with Azure Service Bus?
Answer: Via the Service Bus trigger binding, which fires the function when new messages arrive
The Azure Functions Service Bus trigger binding listens for new messages on a queue or subscription and automatically invokes the function when messages arrive.
Which Azure Event Grid schema format should be used for maximum interoperability with open-source event frameworks?
Answer: CloudEvents schema
The CloudEvents schema is an open standard (CNCF) for describing event data, providing maximum interoperability with open-source tools and frameworks.
What is the role of the Event Hubs partition in enabling parallel processing?
Answer: Each partition holds an independent ordered stream of events, allowing multiple consumers to read in parallel
Each Event Hubs partition maintains its own ordered sequence of events, allowing one consumer per partition, enabling fully parallel processing across partitions.
