cloud programming
About this tag
Cloud programming on Windows involves using Azure services to facilitate communication between devices, such as a Raspberry Pi running Windows IoT Core and a mobile phone. Rather than processing data, the cloud can act as a simple relay, passing messages from one device to another. This approach minimizes the need for complex cloud-side logic, focusing instead on efficient device-to-device messaging via Azure IoT Hub. The tagged content explores how to set up such minimal cloud programming scenarios, emphasizing the role of the cloud as a communication bridge rather than a data processing hub.
We’ve already seen how to get your devices to send data to the cloud. In most cases, the data is then processed by various Azure services. However, in some cases the cloud is nothing more than a means of communication between two devices.
Imagine a Raspberry Pi connected to a garage door...
