Streaming Data to Azure Event Hub via Mockaroo and Kafka API

Jasleen Kaur Wahi generates some data:

In a recent project, I faced the need to generate randomized data for transmission to the Azure Event Hub. This hub is a key component of Microsoft Azure, used for real-time data ingestion and processing.

First, let’s take look at how I created this random data. I wanted to come up with a way to make data that looks like what we see in the real world, but without using any real information from users. This made-up data was really important for a bunch of things, like checking if our software works well.

Read on to see how Mockaroo works and the end result. Creating tests for streaming services like Event Hubs is a challenge, so this is an interesting approach to the task.
