Use a step-by-step process to create and deploy your first Azure IoT
Edge solution.
Modern day developers and architects in today's cloud-focused world must
understand when it makes sense to leverage the cloud. Computing on the
edge is a new paradigm for most people. The Azure IoT Edge platform uses
many existing technologies that may be familiar to developers, but
understanding how to leverage those technologies in an edge computing
scenario can be challenging.
Beginning Azure IoT Edge Computing demystifies computing on the
edge and explains, through concrete examples and exercises, how and when
to leverage the power of intelligent edge computing. It introduces the
possibilities of intelligent edge computing using the Azure IoT Edge
platform, and guides you through hands-on exercises to make edge
computing approachable, understandable, and highly useful.
Through user-friendlydiscussion you will not only understand how to
build edge solutions, but also when to build them. By explaining some
common solution patterns, the decision on when to use the cloud and when
to avoid the cloud will become much clearer.
