MQTT and new AWS IoT service

Thanks, Dave.

So you guys announced the Particle + Microsoft Azure partnership last July here: New Integration with Microsoft

That article provided an example weather station that sends data from a Photon to Azure in this Hackster page:

And then on that Hackster page, there is a link to this document where they say in version 2 of Connect The Dot’s they are now sending data to the Azure IOT Events instead of Azure Event Hub. https://github.com/Azure/connectthedots

This is all new to me so I’m going to have to ingest all this in the free time I come up with but the main question I want to ask is if I’m on the right track as far as this being the best way to get product sensor data into an Azure database that can be scaled in the future in an efficient way as far as data transfer and cost go.

I’m sure I’m not the only person who will be wanting to do this.
