The IoT Show: Tribulations of an MQTT developer discovering Azure IoT
Microcontrollers such ESP32's, Arduino's, ESP8266 are incredibly popular in the maker space and with protocols such as MQTT and firmware such as Tasmota connecting these into Azure has never been easier. What value could I derive from replicating my home events into Azure? What higher level services could I use that goes above and beyond local systems such as HomeAssistant? These are the questions Shane asked himself while connecting his MQTT based home automation system to Azure, and he joins Olivier on the IoT Show to share his experience.
