Prerequisites

Before you can use Microsoft Azure Event Hubs as a target endpoint in a Replicate task, the following prerequisites must be met:

• Replicate requires access to the Event Hubs namespace (and not only to a specific hub in the namespace).

• The target hubs must already exist before starting the replication task. Note that if you intend to use the Separate hub for each table option in the endpoint settings, the hub name must adhere to the following format:

  SourceSchemaName.HubName

  where HubName must be identical to the source table name.

  Example:

  HR.Employees

• Create a hub named attrep_apply_exceptions before starting the replication task. Note that if this hub does not exist, the task will always fail when it encounters a data error, regardless of the error handling policy.
