IoT hub

The IoT hub is analogous to the IoT middleware that we looked at in Chapter 1, Introduction to IoT. The IoT hub helps us to connect, monitor, and manage billions of IoT assets.

Some of the key features are as follows:

Authentication per device
Extended and comprehensive device management
Communication with billions of IoT devices
Device registration and provisioning
Support of MQTT(S), AMQP, and HTTPS protocols for device-to-cloud communication
