Messaging, Events, and IoT for Python apps on Azure

The following articles help you get started with messaging, event ingestion and processing, and Internet of Things (IoT) services in Azure.

Messaging

Azure messaging services let different components and apps communicate easily, no matter what language they use or where they're hosted—whether in the same cloud, across multiple clouds, or on-premises.

• Notifications

• Queues

  • Quickstart: Azure Queue Storage client library for Python
  • Quickstart: Send messages to and receive messages from Azure Service Bus queues (Python)
  • Send messages to an Azure Service Bus topic and receive messages from subscriptions to the topic (Python)

• Real-time web functionality (SignalR)

  • Quickstart: Create a serverless app with Azure Functions and Azure SignalR Service in Python

• Azure Web PubSub

Events

Azure Event Hubs and Azure Event Grid are two key services for handling events in Azure. They provide capabilities for ingesting, processing, and routing events across various applications and services.

These services allow you to build event-driven architectures and process events in real time.

• Event Hubs

  • Quickstart: Send events to or receive events from event hubs by using Python
  • Quickstart: Capture Event Hubs data in Azure Storage and read it by using Python (azure-eventhub)

• Event Grid

  • Quickstart: Route custom events to web endpoint with Azure CLI and Event Grid
  • Azure Event Grid Client Library Python Samples

Internet of Things (IoT)

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a set of managed and platform services across edge and cloud that connect, monitor, and control IoT assets. IoT also encompasses device security, operating systems, and data analytics tools to help you build, deploy, and manage IoT applications effectively.

• IoT Hub

  • Quickstart: Send telemetry from an IoT Plug and Play device to Azure IoT Hub
  • Send cloud-to-device messages with IoT Hub
  • Upload files from your device to the cloud with IoT Hub
  • Schedule and broadcast jobs
  • Quickstart: Control a device connected to an IoT hub

• Device provisioning

  • Quickstart: Provision an X.509 certificate simulated device
  • Tutorial: Provision devices using symmetric key enrollment groups
  • Tutorial: Provision multiple X.509 devices using enrollment groups

• IoT Central/IoT Edge

  • Tutorial: Create and connect a client application to your Azure IoT Central application
  • Tutorial: Develop IoT Edge modules using Visual Studio Code
