Orion Contex Broker as a data source in Eventstream, is possible?

Hi Anonymous ,

Thank you for your question on integrating FIWARE Orion Context Broker with Microsoft Fabric Eventstream.

Currently, Fabric Eventstream supports input from sources like Azure Event Hub, Azure IoT Hub, Kafka, and custom HTTPS endpoints that follow specific schemas. Since Orion Context Broker primarily sends notifications using HTTP/REST in NGSI-v2 or NGSI-LD format, it doesn’t natively integrate with Eventstream’s required schema or input protocols.

Recommended Approach : Using a Bridge to Azure Event Hub
A proven method to achieve this integration is by introducing a lightweight middleware service that acts as a bridge between Orion and Eventstream.

We recommend reviewing the following open-source project:
GitHub - JMayrbaeurl/fiware-azure-eventhub-publisher: Sample showing FIWARE Context broker notification sending to Azure Event Hubs

This solution uses a Spring Boot REST microservice to:

    1. Receive NGSI notifications from Orion Context Broker

    2. Transform and publish the data to a configured Azure Event Hub

    3. From there, you can easily ingest the data into Microsoft Fabric Eventstream by configuring Event Hub as a         source.

This pattern maintains near real-time ingestion and is highly extensible.

Hope this helps. Please reach out for further assistance.
