Connectors

This topic describes connectors that enable the ScaleOut Digital Twins™ service to connect to popular event hubs (or the ScaleOut REST service) so that data sources can send messages to real-time digital twin instances and receive responses. It also allows a connection to be established to the Azure Digital Twins service and to other persistence providers to retrieve and persist real-time digital twin properties.

Note

Connectors that connect to live message hubs are intended only for use with real-time digital twins and not for simulation.

The ScaleOut Digital Twins UI allows connections to be created and configured using these connectors.
