Remotely monitor and control devices with IoT Hub Learn module

The sample here provides the source code that is created with the Remotely monitor and control devices with IoT Hub Learn module. This module creates an Azure IoT Hub app, to monitor the temperature and humidty of a cheese cave. A device app, written in Node.js, sends telemetry to the IoT Hub, which uses device twins and direct method technologies to control the settings of the cheese cave.

Prerequisites

The student of the module will need familiarity with the Azure IoT Hub portal. The code development can be done using Visual Studio, or Visual Studio Code. The code itself is written in either Node.js, or C#.

Setup

The setup is explained in the text for the module. The module does not require the student to download the code from this location, the code is listed and explained in the Learn module. The code here is a resource if the student needs it.

Running the sample

Running the sample requires that the student go through all the steps of the Learn module.

Key concepts

The sample simulates monitoring and controlling the temperature and humidity of a cheese cave. A device app communicates telemetry from a device to the IoT Hub. The sample also includes code for a back-end service app. This app is used to send desired properties to the remote device. The back-end service utilizes Azure device twins and direct methods technology to perform the synchronization.
