OT sensor cloud connection methods

In the previous section, we learned about sensor placements. Now, let us move forward to understand how to monitor and maintain MDIoT. Connecting OT sensors to the cloud, and thus to MDIoT, is an important step to consider.

All the methods we are about to mention here emphasize the following:

Easy deployment: Nothing extra to add to the Azure portal, especially to get the connection between the sensor and MDIoT going
Enhanced security: No extra resource security needs to be turned on in Azure Virtual Network (Azure VNet)
Improved scalability: As this is a SaaS-based solution, scalability can easily be achieved
Flexible connectivity: The connectivity options will be discussed shortly, and you will see that the variety of options provided offers flexibility

Azure proxy

Azure VNet provides you with a proxy, which can aid in the process of connecting OT sensors to the MDIoT portal. The confidentiality of all the communications...
