Event Grid and operational excellence

Azure Event Grid lets you easily build applications with event-based architectures. This solution has build-in support for events coming from Azure services, like storage blobs and resource groups. Event Grid also has support for your own events, using custom topics.

For more information about using Event Grid, reference Create and route custom events with Azure Event Grid.

To understand how using Event Grid promotes operational excellence for your workload, reference Diagnostic logs for Event Grid topics and Event Grid domains.

Design considerations

Azure Event Grid provides an uptime SLA. For more information, reference SLA for Event Grid.

Checklist

Have you configured Azure Event Grid with operational excellence in mind?

  • Monitor Event Grid for failed event delivery.
  • Use batched events.
  • Event batches can't exceed 1MB in size.
  • Configure and optimize batch-size selection during load testing.
  • Ensure Event Grid messages are accepted with HTTP 200-204 responses only if delivering to an endpoint that holds custom code.
  • Monitor Event Grid for failed event publishing.

Configuration recommendations

Consider the following recommendations to optimize operational excellence when configuring Azure Event Grid:

Recommendation Description
Monitor Event Grid for failed event delivery. The Delivery Failed metric will increase every time a message can't be delivered to an event handler (timeout or a non-200-204 HTTP status code). If an event can't be lost, set up a Dead-Letter-Queue (DLQ) storage account. A DLQ account is where events that can't be delivered after the maximum retry count will be placed. Optionally, implement a notification system on the DLQ storage account, for example, by handling a new file event through Event Grid.
Use batched events in high-throughput scenarios. The service will deliver a json array with multiple events to the subscribers, instead of an array with one event. The consuming application must be able to process these arrays.
Event batches can't exceed 1MB in size. If the message payload is large, only one or a few messages will fit in the batch. The consuming service will need to process more event batches. If your event has a large payload, consider storing it elsewhere, such as in blob storage, and passing a reference in the event. When integrating with third-party services through the CloudEvents schema, it's not recommended to exceed 64KB events.
Configure and optimize batch-size selection during load testing. Batch size selection depends on the payload size and the message volume.
Monitor Event Grid for failed event publishing. The Unmatched metric will show messages that are published, but not matched to any subscription. Depending on your application architecture, the latter may be intentional.

To determine the Input Schema type for all available Event Grid topics, use the following query:

Resources 
| where type == 'microsoft.eventgrid/topics'
| project name, resourceGroup, location, subscriptionId, properties['inputSchema']

To retrieve the Resource ID of existing private endpoints for Event Grid domains, use the following query:

Resources 
| where type == 'microsoft.eventgrid/domains' and notnull(properties['privateEndpointConnections']) 
| mvexpand properties['privateEndpointConnections'] 
| project-rename privateEndpointConnections = properties_privateEndpointConnections 
| project name, resourceGroup, location, subscriptionId, privateEndpointConnections['properties']['privateEndpoint']['id']

To identify Public Network Access status for all available Event Grid domains, use the following query:

Resources 
| where type == 'microsoft.eventgrid/domains' 
| project name, resourceGroup, location, subscriptionId, properties['publicNetworkAccess']

To identify Firewall Rules for all public Event Grid domains, use the following query:

Resources 
| where type == 'microsoft.eventgrid/domains' and properties['publicNetworkAccess'] == 'Enabled'
| project name, resourceGroup, location, subscriptionId, properties['inboundIpRules']

To identify Firewall Rules for all public Event Grid topics, use the following query:

Resources 
| where type == 'microsoft.eventgrid/topics' and properties['publicNetworkAccess'] == 'Enabled'
| project name, resourceGroup, location, subscriptionId, properties['inboundIpRules']

To retrieve the Resource ID of existing private endpoints for Event Grid topics, use the following query:
