Connecting inexpensive edge hardware to robust cloud architecture is the foundation of modern engineering projects. The ESP32 microcontroller has become a staple for developers due to its integrated Wi-Fi capability and low price point. However, capturing data locally on your workbench is vastly different from streaming data securely to an enterprise cloud system.
While this tutorial will help you build a functional prototype on your workbench, companies looking to securely deploy thousands of these IoT nodes across a smart factory often team up with a Microsoft solutions partner to architect a highly scalable and secure Azure environment. For our purposes today, we will focus on bridging the gap between physical hardware and the cloud by settin ...
