This past week has been rich in realizations for me and I wanted to share some of them in your weekly IoT digest in the form of numbers.
Reading an interesting article on darkreading.com, I realized there were 80+ existing authentication schemes used or proposed to secure IoT devices connectivity to the Cloud!
Another mind blowing number I learnt this week is 186 demos the Azure Maps team put out!
A third number for the week: 7, as in 7 Trillion messages per day going through Azure IoT as explained by Jason Zander, CVP for Microsoft Azure, during a talk at some event.
Security seems to have been a major topic in IoT this week as well with an interesting announcement by Jitsuin of a solution to further advance secure asset management powered by Azure IoT.
Last but not least, The Things Conference published the different talks we presented about Simplifying IoT and Farmbeats a couple weeks back. Along with a couple IoT Show episodes and an IoT In Action webinar, your playlist for the weekend should be full!
Enjoy and as usual, do not hesitate to share your own news and update about what happened this week in IoT at and around Microsoft.
