Message routing queries
In the context of an IoT hub, routing refers to the process of directing and forwarding incoming messages from IoT devices to different endpoints or destinations within the IoT ecosystem. IoT Hub is a cloud-based service that acts as a central hub for managing and communicating with many connected devices.
Routing in an IoT hub enables you to define rules and conditions based on the message content or device metadata and then automatically route the messages to appropriate endpoints. These endpoints can include other Azure services, custom applications, storage systems, databases, or even other IoT hubs.
Here’s a high-level overview of how routing works in an IoT hub:
- The device sends a message: An IoT device connected to the IoT hub sends a telemetry message, event, or state update to the hub.
- Routing rules: The IoT hub evaluates the routing rules defined by the user. These rules specify conditions and filters based on message properties...
