I am trying to understand how to choose number of Azure IOT Hubs in a scenario where I have variety of devices sending variety of data

I am trying to understand on do I need to choose individual IOT HUB based on device category.

For Example I have devices sending GPS info. Devices send stock info Devices sending quality info. Devices sending security info. Devices sending fire safety info.

Each of the above category devices send versatile data in versatile format. In this scenario is it a best option to configure multiple IOT hubs or one IOT hub is suffice.

Thanks in Advance....

As the IoT Hub is totally agnostic to the actual data that you are sending, you would not need to have separate IoT Hubs per use case. You can still connect all the devices to one IoT Hub and then route the telemetry data, for example based on on device properties, to different downstream processing steps.

You might still want to use multiple IoT Hubs but mainly then for either scaling reasons or for geographical distribution.
