Provisioning Devices with the Device Provisioning Service
Azure Device Provisioning Service (DPS) is a cloud-based service provided by Microsoft Azure that enables the automatic registration and provisioning of devices to an IoT solution. Azure DPS simplifies the task of configuring and deploying IoT devices at scale. With Azure DPS, developers can easily manage the entire life cycle of their IoT devices, from initial provisioning to updates and maintenance.
The service works by providing a secure and scalable way to authenticate and authorize devices before they can connect to an IoT hub. Azure DPS uses industry-standard security protocols such as X.509 certificates and symmetric keys to provide secure communication between devices and the cloud.
In this chapter, you will discover the features of DPS and how to use it to automate your device provisioning. We will be covering the following key topics:
- Device provisioning at scale
- Managing device provisioning security...
