The promise of Azure IoT Edge can only be realized when an actual edge device is used. The edge analytics benefits of privacy, latency, and reliability are on full display when we are able to process logic using an edge device, thus the need for a computer that gives us the power to do such, but in a size that allows for easy installation for our applications. The Raspberry Pi is such a computer. In this chapter, we will learn how to utilize the power of the Raspberry Pi as we turn it into an Azure IoT Edge device.
In the previous chapter, we learned a bit about Microsoft Azure and the Azure IoT Hub. This background is essential in understanding Azure IoT Edge. The knowledge gained from the previous chapter will assist us in installing Azure IoT Edge on the Raspberry Pi.
In this chapter, we will look at the following topics:
- Installing...
