In Azure Stream Analytics, jobs are the foundation of real-time analytics. The good news is that setting up jobs is straightforward:

  • Set the job inputs to ingest data.
  • Define how to process the data.
  • Set up a job output to store or display the results.

Let's say that you're demonstrating to the Contoso team how to set up Stream Analytics. You first provide a high-level workflow. Then you show how to create a job input and a job output. Finally, you provide example queries for the analytics. You show the team how to start the job and verify the result.
