Event Data Flow

Where data comes from, what format and cadence it moves in, what is retained at each hop, and where an event goes when it cannot be processed.

Editable source SVG draw.io All views

Retention by zone

Event Hubs 7 days · dead-letter 14 days · ADX hot cache 31 days, total 400 days
Bronze capture 7 years in ADLS, immutable with a legal-hold policy available
Silver and gold are rebuildable and carry no independent retention obligation

No silent loss

An event is either committed to Event Hubs or the producer receives a non-2xx response
Schema rejects and unprocessable events land in a dead-letter hub with the failure reason
Dead-letter depth and schema-reject rate are first-class alerting signals, not log lines

Deliberate omissions

Window semantics and late-arrival behaviour are drawn in the windowing view
Tier transitions and lifecycle policies are drawn in the storage view
Per-interface authentication is drawn in the security and identity views
