IoT Hub Documentation
Azure IoT Hub is a fully managed service that enables reliable and secure bidirectional communications between millions of IoT devices and a solution back end. It also provides extensive monitoring for device connectivity and includes device libraries for most popular languages and platforms.

As more and more devices centrally log their information and receive remote commands, there are greater opportunities to integrate support and operations. Learn how Connected Field Service brings IoT and Field Service together to centrally monitor and dispatch field service personnel armed with integrated data from customers. Watch:Kafka Connect for Azure IoT Hub
In Azure IoT, we believe in empowering developers to build IoT solutions with the technologies of their choice. Today I’m excited to announce the release of Kafka Connect for Azure IoT Hub. This new Kafka Source Connectorcan be used to read telemetry data from devices connected to the Azure IoT Hub; this open source code can be found on GitHub. Azure IoT Hub provides secure two way communication with devices, device identity and device management at extreme scale and performance. Kafka Connect for Azure IoT Hub enables developers to connect IoT Hub to open source systems using Kafka for a powerful, secure and performant IoT solution. Kafka Connect for IoT Hub can also be used with the new managed Kafka solution available in Azure HDInsight. Stay tuned for more announcements and follow us on GitHub to see what is coming next for Kafka Connect for Azure IoT Hub.

As more businesses turn to the Internet of Things (IoT), security and privacy are often top of mind. Our goal at Microsoft is to keep our customers' IoT solutions secure. As part of our ongoing security efforts, Microsoft recently launched the Security Program for Azure IoT, which provides customers with a choice of security auditors who can assess their IoT solutions from device to cloud. Microsoft also offers comprehensive guidance on IoT security and state of the art security built into Azure IoT Suite and Azure IoT Hub. Today, Microsoft is excited to announce another important security feature: IP filtering. IP filtering enables customers to instruct IoT Hub to only accept connections from certain IP addresses, to reject certain IP addresses or a combination of both. We’ve made it easy for administrators to configure these IP filtering rules for their IoT Hub. These rules apply any time a device or a back-end application is connecting on any supported protocols (currently AMQP, MQTT, AMQP/WS, MQTT/WS, HTTP/1). Any application from an IPv4 address that matches a rejecting IP rule receives an unauthorized 401 status code without specific mention of the IP rule in the message. The IP filter allows maximum 10 rules each rejecting or accepting an individual IPv4 address or a subnet using the CIDR-notation format. The following two examples demonstrate how to blacklist an IP address and whitelist a certain subnet.

I found this article inspiring and decided to share it on this community, as an example of making innovation and providing business value: Microsoft Azure IoT Suite and HoloLens enable revolutionary solutions for thyssenkrupp Elevator https://blogs.microsoft.com/iot/2016/09/15/microsoft-azue-iot-suite-and-hololens-enable-revolutionary-solutions-for-thyssenkrupp-elevator/Early look at Power BI updates and new customization options
We invite Michael Tejedor back to give us an update on Power BI. Michael explains the options for connecting Power BI to cloud and even on-premises data sources. We also share news for content packs allowing you to connect and gain insights into data from popular cloud services immediately. Finally, Michael demonstrates the new push APIs to allow Power BI to display data from IoT devices.
