IoT Hub is a managed service hosted in the cloud that acts as a central message hub for communication between an IoT application and its attached devices.Â
You can connect millions of devices and their backend solutions reliably and securely. Almost any device can be connected to an IoT Hub.
IoT Hub scales to millions of simultaneously connected devices and millions of events per second to support your IoT workloads.
Typically, IoT devices send telemetry from the sensors to back-end services in the cloud.
However, other types of communication are possible, such as a back-end service sending commands to your devices.
Azure Data Factory cannot be used for real-time analysis from IoT Hub events.
Use Azure Stream Analytics for real-time event processing
