Introduction

The Microsoft Azure IoT Gateway SDK contains the infrastructure and modules to create IoT gateway solutions. The SDK can be used and extended to create gateways tailored to any end-to-end scenario.

Features

• Enables units of logic called "modules" to communicate with each other via a common broker.
• Modules, and communication "links" between them, are described in a JSON configuration file.
• Modules included with the SDK:
  • BLE module supports reading, writing, and polling based on GATT characteristics (Linux only).
  • IoT Hub module supports multiplexing device telemetry over a single connection to Azure IoT Hub.
• Written in ANSI C (C99) to maximize code portability.
• Modules can be written in C, C# (.NET Core and .NET Framework), Java, and Node.js.
