Optimized way of sending data from Home Assistant to free Azure Kusto cluster

Hi, in my previous post I described how to capture and send events from Home Assistant to the free Azure Kusto cluster, but that turned out to be quite "expensive" for my MSFT Azure account, compared to what I expected. So behold a more simplified and completely free way.

Turned out Free Azure Kusto cluster can connect and consume Event Hub events on its own.

Now the data is flowing only for a cost of the even hub, which is well within my VS MSDN subscription
