HOW THIS FITS INTO IOT
Microsoft IoT Central breaks down barriers to deriving business benefits from IoT by reducing time, skills and investment to deploy an enterprise-grade IoT solution.
LEARNING OBJECTIVESJoin this workshop to get hands-on with IoT Edge, Microsoft’s vision of the Intelligent Edge. Azure IoT Edge is an Internet of Things (IoT) service that builds on top of IoT Hub. This service is meant for customers who want to analyze data on devices, a.k.a. "at the edge", instead of in the cloud. By moving parts of your workload to the edge, your devices can spend less time sending messages to the cloud and react more quickly to changes in status.
WHAT ATTENDEES DOWe’ll cover a brief overview of the IoT Edge product, and spend the majority of our time deploying resources utilizing the free VS Code IDE and creating a custom C# Azure Function to containerize and deploy. For the Edge device, we’ll leverage a Linux VM, so no need to worry about hardware requirements.
WHAT ATTENDEES BRINGPlease bring your own laptop.
KNOWLEDGE REQUIREDNo development expertise needed.
PRE-CLASS SETUPAs part of this workshop, please bring a laptop with you and set up your Azure subscription prior to the workshop. If you don’t yet have an Azure subscription, set it up
