I’ve been presented with the 2017 – 2025 Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for my Azure IoT community work.

In 2024, I also received a second MVP award for Real-Time Intelligence.

In my daily work, I'm an IoT solution architect for SDG Group (an Alten company) - The Netherlands, the consulting and engineering organization for the high-tech sector, and I specialize in Microsoft Azure IoT together with Microsoft Fabric.

I'm involved with many aspects of the Azure IoT Platform and Azure and IoT in general.

I work on IoT innovations where I add IoT value by working together with clients, partners, and the community.

Unlocking Real-Time Insights: Integrating Azure IoT Operations with Microsoft Fabric

Join us for an insightful session where we delve into the seamless integration of Azure IoT Operations with Microsoft Fabric to unlock real-time intelligence.

Azure IoT Operations is the latest solution for highly available Edge computing within the ever-expanding Azure IoT ecosystem. It leverages cutting-edge standards like MQTT and OPC-UA, offering a robust suite of integration solutions. This enables efficient telemetry transmission to the Fabric Eventstream and even supports receiving commands.

In this session, after introducing Azure IoT Operations, we dive into the integration with Microsoft Fabric Real-Time Intelligence. This part of Microsoft Fabric's SaaS Data platform makes it easy to ingest Real-Time data using an intuitive portal experience.

While experiencing hands-on demonstrations using actual IoT devices, learn how Azure IoT Operations is configured to collect device messages and integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Fabric's real-time intelligence features.

Once the telemetry is available in the Fabric Eventhouse, Real-Time insights and actions are demonstrated based on a medallion architecture and conversational AI.

Attendees will gain valuable insights and practical knowledge on leveraging powerful low-code Fabric features to enhance IoT operations and real-time intelligence capabilities.

Azure IoT Operations: The Ultimate Edge Device Whisperer

Recently, Microsoft introduced a new member to the Azure IoT family: Azure IoT Operations.

It is designed with the latest IoT standards, like MQTT, OPC-UA, and better cloud integration.

In this session, attendees learn the currently available features of Azure IoT Operations and how these integrate both on the factory floor and in the cloud.

They also see a comparison with Azure IoT Edge and learn about the pros and cons of the new solution.

After this session, attendees know the value of the current Azure IoT Operations features and how to start if they want to test this edge solution themselves.

Fancy device toppings on your vanilla MQTT broker?

Do you want to connect many IoT devices all over the world so they can communicate with each other in real time? Do you want to use standard MQTT... in a secure way?

On popular demand, one of the most popular IoT protocols is now offered as a native cloud service.

While IoT is maturing, Microsoft is expanding its Azure IoT proposition in multiple directions. This vanilla MQTT broker also comes with extra options to make it even more secure.

Using multiple demos, solutions with both device-to-device communication between actual industrial devices and device-to-cloud communication will be explained.

Next to the EventGrid namespace MQTT support, the integration with eg. Microsoft Fabric is demonstrated.

Learn why this new broker offers new advantages for your IoT solution, where the pitfalls are, and how it fit in your architecture to provide insights and value using real-time analytics.

This is a presentation filled with live demos where actual industrial hardware will be connected to the cloud

Attendees learn how the Azure services both honor vanilla MQTT and offer more elaborate services on top of it.
