IoT protocol gateway
HTTP, AMQP, and MQTT are the default protocols Azure IoT Hub supports for communication over the internet with devices or gateways. It could be possible that, in some scenarios, a few devices or field gateways might not be able to use one of these default protocols and will require protocol supports. In such cases, you can use a custom gateway. A custom gateway can enable a protocol wrapper for IoT Hub endpoints by bridging the traffic to and from IoT Hub, hence, avoiding any impact on your IoT implementation.
The Azure IoT protocol gateway is a framework for a protocol wrapper that is meant for scalable and bidirectional communication with IoT Hub.
