Azure IoT Hub Python : End-to-End Guide for Simulate IoT Device Telemetry, Cloud-to-Device Messaging, and Azure Function Integration

Image
Here's an end-to-end example that demonstrates how to simulate an IoT device sending telemetry data to Azure IoT Hub, receive a Cloud-to-Device (C2D) message from the IoT Hub back to the device, and use an Azure Function to process and handle the data in Python. The diagram represents a sequence of interactions between an IoT Device(Simulated), Azure IoT Hub, and an Azure Function. Here's a breakdown: IoT Device(Simulated) to Azure IoT Hub: The IoT Device sends telemetry data (in JSON format) to the Azure IoT Hub. Azure IoT Hub to Azure Function: The Azure IoT Hub triggers an Azure Function to process the incoming telemetry data. Azure Function Processing: The Azure Function processes the telemetry data. Azure Function to IoT Device: After processing, the Azure Function sends an acknowledgment or result (in JSON format) back to the IoT Hub, which forwards it as a cloud-to-device message to the IoT Device. Prerequisites: An Azure subscription. An IoT Hub created in Azure. The Az...
