Microsoft Azure Web PubSub Service
Microsoft Azure Web PubSub Service - An Overview
Azure Web PubSub Service is a fully managed real-time messaging service in Microsoft Azure that enables you to build web applications using publish-subscribe patterns over WebSocket connections. It supports multiple client protocols and hub-based message routing, making it suitable for live dashboards, collaborative applications, IoT data streaming, and other real-time scenarios.
Applications Manager's Azure Web PubSub Service monitoring provides key metrics to track active connections, connection activity, inbound and outbound traffic, server load, connection quota utilization, client request status, and REST API response time. Monitor your Azure Web PubSub Service to ensure reliable, low-latency real-time communication for your applications.
