Automated device management
There are many repetitive tasks when managing IoT devices. Luckily, Azure IoT provides many ways to automate these tasks. You have already seen how the Device Provisioning Service (DPS) is used to automate device provisioning and register devices at scale. In addition, Azure IoT Hub provides a central location where you can manage your IoT devices and data. It provides features such as message routing, telemetry ingestion, and device-to-cloud communication.
