Event Grid pricing example 2
Incoming logs to Event Hubs are being sent to storage through Event Hubs Capture. Five million log batch events are pushed by Event Grid to Logic Apps for monitoring. All events are also pushed to one of several custom-monitoring endpoints based on the event type, and in some cases the origin of the event. One million of these events require advanced matching. One of the endpoints experiences outages and retries are necessary to successfully deliver the events.
