Now I'm using service bus topic as a backplane for signalr. But event hub is much cheaper than topics. Therefore, I want use Event Hub as a backplane for SignalR. Can I do this now or in near feature ?

Not sure this is a real answer, but it looks like to me. I am not sure whether Event Hub is suitable for your goal, but assuming you verified and it is, then you can write your own backplane supporting it. For exercise I wrote one which was using SignalR itself (doh) as a backplane system and it was not damn difficult. You can take inspiration from the source code of the one for Service Bus and roll out your own. In particular you'll have to put most of your logic when implementing your version of a ScaleoutMessageBus-derived class.
