Can I configure Azure eventhub(Kafka backed) as ingest storage

Can I configure Azure eventhub(Kafka backed) as ingest storage.

Azure Event Hubs requires TLS 1.2 or higher for all connections. Because the Mimir Ingester lacks a native TLS configuration flag for its Kafka consumer:

  • You cannot directly connect the Ingester to an Azure Event Hub if it requires a custom CA or specific TLS handshaking not handled by the system’s default trust store.

  • The Ingester relies on the system-level root certificates for the initial encrypted handshake required by Event Hubs, but it lacks the fine-grained controls (like client_cert or skip_verify) found in other Mimir components
