Azure Event Hub Storage Container Configuration for Azure Function with Input Binding

Question

When handling an Event Hub event with an input bound Azure Function, is it possible to change the Storage account configured for the Event Hub partition checkpointing?

Is it possible to do this with a Premium Storage account and in isolation (ie a different Storage account than the account selected for the Azure Function during set up)?

It seems that this is possible with the EventProcessorHost but the Function doesn't seem to expose the EventProcessorHost configuration.

Answer 1

I did a similar hack for some other propose.

First, stop your Azure function

Then, Create New Premium Storage account and Copy an existing blobs and container (All eventhub checkpointing files with the same folder structure).

Then change Azure function storage account connection string to new premium storage account.

Then start your Azure function.
