Create an IoT System with GridDB and Azure IoT Hub

This course is aimed at teaching you about the internet of things (IoT), its infrastructure, and some of the tools which can help us to build out a fully on-the-cloud system. Our goal with this IoT system is to have infrastructure in place which can handle TONS of on-the-field sensors, automatically enroll new devices to our hub, authentication, and robustness of our sensor data (we don't want to lose our data!).

By pairing Azure's IoT Hub with GridDB's Cloud offering, we can build a robust IoT System which operates entirely on the cloud with absolutely zero compromises. This system has just about infinite scaling, is able to handle multiple hubs in different Geo-locations, provides device attestation out of the box, and more!

And if you're thinking this course is starting to sound a bit expensive  (we need *how many* sensors??), don't worry because everything we will build and discuss is completely free! So no, we will not need expensive hardware; the course operates using virtual devices which allows for us to freely test how well we can scale and handle simultaneous data streams being saved directly into GridDB Cloud.

If you join this course, you will learn how to write the schema for a rudimentary IoT system, how to sign up for Microsoft Azure and its many services (using the portal), and how to use and query from the GridDB Cloud database using the portal and through HTTP Requests. Looking a little closer on the Azure side, we will also learn about Device Attestation, the event grid, serverless functions, and how to troubleshoot your sensor events.

So please, join me in this course and learn about how to build out this robust system. It's gonna be fun!
