 # Quickstart: Send and receive large messages with Azure Event Hubs (preview)
 
-In this quickstart, you learn how to send and receive large messages (up to 20 MB) by using Azure Event Hubs. If you're new to Event Hubs, see [Event Hubs overview](event-hubs-about.md) before you go through this quickstart.

-### Prerequisites
+## Prerequisites
 
-To complete this quickstart, you need the following prerequisites:
-
-- An Azure subscription. To use Azure services, including Event Hubs, you need a subscription. If you don't have an existing Azure account, you can sign up for a [free trial](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F) or use your MSDN subscriber benefits when you [create an account](https://azure.microsoft.com/).
-- A [self-serve scalable dedicated cluster](event-hubs-dedicated-cluster-create-portal.md), an event hubs namespace, and an event hub. The first step to meet this prerequisite is to use the Azure portal to create a dedicated cluster and namespace inside a cluster. To create an event hub, see [Quickstart: Create an event hub by using the Azure portal](event-hubs-create.md). You can skip this step if you already have a self-serve scalable dedicated cluster.

-> Large message support, currently in public preview, is exclusively available with certain Event Hubs self-serve dedicated clusters. Streaming large messages with these clusters incurs no extra charges.

 ## Configure an Event Hubs dedicated cluster
 
 To stream large messages, you must configure your self-serve scalable dedicated cluster.
 
 In the Azure portal, go to the **Settings** section for the dedicated cluster. Under **Settings**, select the **Quota** tab.

 - Validate that the value for the read-only key `supportslargemessages` is set to `True`.
 - You can update the key `eventhubmaxmessagesizeinbytes` to a suitable value in bytes. An acceptable range for this value is between 1,048,576 and 20,971,520 bytes.
 
 After the configuration is saved, you're ready to stream large messages with Event Hubs.

-> Large message streaming is only supported with self-serve scalable dedicated clusters built out of the latest infrastructure. This capability is reflected by the `Supportslargemessages` key.
