Who This Book Is For

If you are an application developer and want to build robust and secure IoT solution for your organization using Azure IoT, then this book is for you.

What You Will Learn

  • Build IoT Solutions using Azure IoT & Services
  • Learn device configuration and communication protocols
  • Understand IoT Suite and Pre-configured solutions
  • Manage Secure Device communications
  • Understand Device management, alerts
  • Introduction with IoT Analytics, reference IoT Architectures

  • Pre-Configured IoT Suite solutions

In Detail

Microsoft's end-to-end IoT platform is the most complete IoT offering, empowering enterprises to build and realize value from IoT solutions efficiently. It is important to develop robust and reliable solutions for your organization to leverage IoT services.

This book focuses on how to start building custom solutions using the IoT hub or the preconfigured solution of Azure IoT suite. As a developer, you will be taught how to connect multiple devices to the Azure IoT hub, develop, manage the IoT hub service and integrate the hub with cloud. We will be covering REST APIs along with HTTP, MQTT and AMQP protocols. It also helps you learn Pre-Configured IoT Suite solution.

Moving ahead we will be covering topics like:-Process device-to-cloud messages and cloud-to-device messages using .Net-Direct methods and device management-Query Language, Azure IoT SDK for .Net-Creating and managing, Securing IoT hub, IoT Suite and many more. We will be using windows 10 IoT core, Visual Studio, universal Windows platform. At the end, we will take you through IoT analytics and provide a demo of connecting real device with Azure IoT.

Style and approach

A set of exciting recipes of using Microsoft Azure IoT more effectively.
