Chapter 8. Cloud IoT and Maps Services

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, or Industry 4.0, introduced smart automation and increased interconnectivity in the industry. IoT technologies are a great enabler for Industry 4.0, and Azure cloud allows you to build secure, compliant, and scalable IoT solutions.

Goran Vuksic, CTO and Cofounder of SyntheticAIData, Microsoft MVP for AI

In Chapter 7, you learned about the different solutions and services to plan, design, and build solutions for big data, analytics, and reporting in Azure. Your knowledge of analytics and reporting will apply to handling metrics and telemetry data gathered from IoT devices for the cloud.

In this chapter you will learn about the IoT, maps, and edge services in Azure. After reading this chapter, you will understand the Azure services you can use in different use cases to develop IoT solutions.

Internet of Things

The Wikipedia.org defines the IoT as:

Internet of Things (IoT) extends Internet connectivity into physical devices and everyday objects. Embedded with electronics, Internet connectivity, and other forms of hardware (such as sensors), these devices can communicate and interact with others over the Internet. They can be remotely monitored and controlled.

Today’s architectures feature highly scalable event handling, which enables real-time analysis in what Microsoft has named the intelligent cloud. They support the deployment of machine learning at the intelligent edge in the devices.
