Azure IoT Hub for Developers: Getting Started
The Internet of Things is here and it has brought tremendous new opportunities, and tooling learning requirements, with it. This course will introduce you to Azure IoT Hub and teach you how to build both device-side and cloud-side solutions.
What you'll learn
The Internet of Things, commonly known as IoT, is a tremendous opportunity with the potential to disrupt virtually all other industries. Companies that can bring new solutions to market quickly will have a distinct advantage in this changing landscape. In this course, Azure IoT Hub for Developers: Getting Started, you will learn how Microsoft Azure IoT Hub can help you quickly build robust, scalable IoT solutions. First, you will learn the basics of Azure IoT Hub and how it addresses common IoT challenges. Next, you will use Microsoft's IoT client SDK to build a .NET Core device application. After that, you will learn how to use Azure IoT Hub to send and receive messages, both on the device side, and on the cloud side. Finally, you will see how you can deploy your solutions in the cloud and benefit from other Azure capabilities. When you have completed this course, you will have the foundation you need to build Azure IoT Hub as you capitalize on the Internet of Things. Software required: Visual Studio 2015 and up, NodeJS, .NET Core, Azure IoT Hub SDK.
