NodeJS and Azure Service Bus Best Practices

Question

Hi,

Do the recommendations outlined here also apply to the NodeJS client?

I'm developing a long running NodeJS worker service

Hi @RazvanGoga-1178

Its the recommendation for all the SDK's as establishing a connection again is an expensive operation that you can avoid by reusing the existing connection.
In the case of nodeJS once you create the sender/receiver object you can reuse it for multiple operations.

const sender = serviceBusClient.createSender("my-queue");
const receiver = serviceBusClient.createReceiver("my-queue", "peekLock");

The Service Bus library depends on the rhea-promise library for managing connections, sending, and receiving messages over the AMQP protocol.
