since its writing every 5 seconds from azure event hub to storage , its causing more cost utilization ,  
instead we want to make it delay so that we can reduce the cost of ingesting the events , we are not having any issue with AWS or any other log stash plugins , we are only facing these default 5 seconds writing issue with azure event hub logstash plugin  
• With a configured Azure storage account, the restart will be at the last check point which will be every 5 seconds (default) or the end of the last batch of data read.  
how can i control this , i want to increase it to 1 minute

Hello,

As explained in your [previous post](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/need-to-know-ways-of-controlling-the-write-to-storage-account-for-event-hub-access/313551/19) about this issue, the plugin does not have any option to change that.
