Tips and Tidbits

• Azure Event Grid supports CloudEvents

• CloudEvents simplifies interoperability by providing a common event schema for publishing, and consuming cloud based events.

• This schema allows for uniform tooling, standard ways of routing & handling events, and universal ways of deserializing the outer event schema.

• With a common schema, you can more easily integrate work across platforms.
