Cloud for IoT Buyer’s Guide
Deploying and managing IoT devices is hard. Public cloud vendors are trying to make it easier by offering cloud-based services that simplify the tasks of keeping track of all of the devices in a company’s IoT network, uploading and downloading data from them and processing that data.
Each of the Big Three clouds now include an IoT service for this purpose. On AWS, it’s called IoT Core. Google Cloud calls its service Cloud IoT Core. And Azure offers IoT Hub. Each cloud services provider also offers some complementary IoT-related services.
