Azure IoT Development Cookbook

By: Yatish Patil

Overview of this book

Microsoft’s end-to-end IoT platform is the most complete IoT offering, empowering enterprises to build and realize value from IoT solutions efficiently. It is important to develop robust and reliable solutions for your organization to leverage IoT services. This book focuses on how to start building custom solutions using the IoT hub or the preconfigured solution of Azure IoT suite. As a developer, you will be taught how to connect multiple devices to the Azure IoT hub, develop, manage the IoT hub service and integrate the hub with cloud. We will be covering REST APIs along with HTTP, MQTT and AMQP protocols. It also helps you learn Pre-Configured IoT Suite solution. Moving ahead we will be covering topics like:-Process device-to-cloud messages and cloud-to-device messages using .Net-Direct methods and device management-Query Language, Azure IoT SDK for .Net-Creating and managing, Securing IoT hub, IoT Suite and many more. We will be using windows 10 IoT core, Visual Studio, universal Windows platform. At the end, we will take you through IoT analytics and provide a demo of connecting real device with Azure IoT.

Demo - smart parking

Smart parking implementation needs the use of low cost sensors, real-time data, and applications that allow users to monitor available and unavailable parking spots.

Using an IoT connected parking solution, we can help users to identify the open parking slot and navigate them to the right place. This will eventually have multiple benefits. Some of them are:

  • Optimized parking
  • Reduction in fuel consumption
  • Managing traffic

Getting ready

We will use Raspberry Pi with Windows IoT Core installed on it. You can follow the recipe Install Windows IoT Core on Raspberry Pi from this chapter to install it.

The ultra sonic sensor that we will be using for this practical has the following four pins:

  • VCC (V)
  • GND...
