GUID migration: Stream Analytics

Azure Stream Analytics is a fully managed, complex event-processing engine that enables real-time analytic computations on streaming data. The data can come from devices, sensors, websites, social media feeds, apps, infrastructure systems and more.

Stream Analytics introduced a new pricing model on 1st February 2017. With this new pricing model, we added richer capabilities like geospatial functions, the ability to write custom code by using JavaScript, Visual Studio integration and the removal of all ingress throttling limits.

Effective 1st April 2018, all Azure Stream Analytics customers will be migrated to new GUIDs. There would not be any pricing impact from this change, but you might need to modify billing routines that rely on new GUID names and resource GUIDs. If your customers have existing Enterprise Agreement (EA) enrolments that were valid as of 1st February 2017, they will be able to use Stream Analytics at the previous pricing model until the end of their current enrolment period. At the end of this period, all Stream Analytics jobs will be migrated and your customers will be transitioned to the new pricing model. Usage of Stream Analytics in new EA enrolments created after 1st February 2017, defaults to the new pricing model for billing purposes.
