In the previous section, we installed the necessary libraries for Azure IoT Edge on our Raspberry Pi. In this section, we will go into the Azure portal to create an Azure IoT Edge resource, and then connect it to our Raspberry Pi.
Connecting our Raspberry Pi edge device
Creating an Azure IoT Edge resource
In order to create an Azure IoT Edge resource, we first have to create an IoT Hub in Azure. In the following sections, we will create an IoT Hub and an IoT Edge resource. We will copy the connection string from the IoT Edge resource and paste it into the Azure IoT Edge configuration on our Raspberry Pi.
