have you tried an Azure data bus connection? Service endpoint?

I've got a service endpoint to an Azure Service Bus queue. My compadre wrote an Azure function to forward some SOAP to the accounting system.

I just sent up 20 new productids at once (select 20, publish button.) My plugin handles each one at a time so it becomes 20 messages on the queue. The round-trips back to CE are sequential taking about a minute apiece (first one back in ~2 minutes, last one ~22 minutes.)

However, the Azure function log says none of its round-trips is longer than 10.24 seconds and that the messages are arriving a minute apart.

Where is this process being throttled and why?

I can't imagine CE is putting a minute between each IPluginExecutionContext. So, I'm blaming the Azure Service Bus.

Am I justified and what can be done about it?

thanks

There's no plugin but, yes, the step is async.

My compadre found a setting on the Azure side that controls the frequency of polling the queue. It was set to 1 minute. We tested it at 15 and 3 seconds. Durations diminished to 5 and 2.5 minutes respectively.

Consequence is that Microsoft charges per poll -- 3 seconds is 20 times more expensive than 1 minute.

So, I was right in blaming Azure!

Is your plugin step registered as async?
