Azure IoT Hub

In a few weeks, over 22,000 people from around the globe will converge in Orlando, Florida from May 7-9, 2019 for the SAP Sapphire NOW and ASUG Annual Conference.

In the world of manufacturing, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has come, and that means data. A loT of data. Smart machines, equipped with sensors, add to the large quantity of data already generated from quality systems, MES, ERP and other production systems.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms are becoming more intelligent and sophisticated every day, allowing IoT devices like cameras to bridge the physical and digital worlds.

Catch up on Azure – Preview: Distributed tracing support for IoT Hub; Update to Azure DevOps Projects support for Azure Kubernetes Service; More reliable event-driven applications in Azure with an updated Event Grid; and more.

Most IoT solutions, including our Azure IoT reference architecture, use several different services. An IoT message, starting from the device, could flow through a dozen or more services before it is stored or visualized.

Connectivity is often the first challenge in the Internet of Things (IoT) world, that’s why more than three years ago we released Azure IoT SDKs.

Microsoft acquires Citus Data to accelerate PostgreSQL perf and scale; IoT Hub device streams now in public preview; Azure API Management support for OpenAPI Specification v3 in preview; and so much more.

From smart factories and smart cities to virtual personal assistants and self-driving cars, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are transforming how people around the world live, work, and play.

In today’s security-first digital age, ensuring secure connectivity to IoT devices is of paramount importance.

Automatic device management in Microsoft Azure IoT Hub automates many of the repetitive and complex tasks of managing large device fleets over the entirety of their lifecycles.

Technology allows manufacturers to generate more data than traditional systems and users can digest. Predictive analytics, enabled by big data and cloud technologies, can take advantage of this data and provide new and unique insights into the health of manufacturing equipment and processes.

We’re ringing in 2019 by announcing the general availability for the Azure IoT Hub Device Provisioning Service features we first announced back in September 2018! The following features are all generally available to you today.
