Send 1000 requests per second to the azure event hub using azure event hub sampler in JMeter

Answer 1

In your current setup Throughput Shaping Timer can only pause JMeter threads in order to limit the load to the desired value.

With 10 threads you can only reach 1000 requests per second if 1 user executes 100 requests per second and it can only be done if response time is 10 milliseconds or less.

The options are in:

1. Take a look at your response time and increase the number of threads in the Thread Group proportionally, this way you will be able to get more throughput (hopefully)
2. Consider switching to Concurrency Thread Group, it can be connected with the Throughput Shaping Timer via Feedback Function, this way JMeter will be able to kick off more threads if the current amount is not enough for conducting the required load.
