What is Azure IoT Hub?

A managed service enables seamless two-way communication between IoT devices and Azure, providing secure and reliable connections for your Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Serving as a cloud-based backend, Azure IoT Hub can effortlessly connect virtually any device. To enhance your solution, you can integrate from the cloud to the edge, employing per-device authentication, built-in management features, and scalable provisioning capabilities. By utilizing telemetry data from devices to the cloud, you can effectively monitor device statuses and create message routes to various Azure services without requiring coding expertise. Furthermore, cloud-to-device messaging ensures that commands and notifications are transmitted reliably to your connected devices, with delivery tracking made possible through acknowledgment receipts. In cases where connectivity is disrupted, the system automatically retransmits messages, maintaining communication flow. Our goal with Azure IoT Central is to elevate your projects beyond basic proof of concept; we support the creation of innovative, industry-leading solutions through a fully managed IoT application platform that accelerates progress. This holistic strategy empowers organizations to unlock the full potential of IoT technology, driving transformative changes in their operational processes. With this level of support, businesses can confidently explore new avenues for efficiency and growth in their respective industries.

    Azure IoT Hub review

    Date: Mar 04 2022
    Summary

    I have used it successfully in teaching an IoT course for the past several years in our local high school, with good results.
    Students ultimately build individual course projects, and were able to leverage the Azure IoT Hub easily, and with good results.
    Would definitely use again!

    Positive

    The Azure IoT Hub is very easy to create, configure, and develop code against.

    We were able to easily integrate different IoT devices, and extra data for reporting.

    Negative

    No real negatives encountered. We've used it extensively for 3+ years and its worked well for us.
