#JulyOT is back for 2021! Throughout the month of July, the IoT Cloud Advocacy team will be sharing content and events put together by IoT enthusiasts from around the world. This includes content from community members, Microsoft employees, and could even involve you! For every working day in July, we’ll focus on a featured content piece from our curated collection at the IoT Tech Community.

This lesson dives deeper into some of the concepts covered in the last lesson. The two components of an IoT application are the Internet and the thing, and this lesson dives deeper into both of these, covering different types of ‘things’, including microcontrollers and single-board computers. It then looks at the different ways these ‘things’ can use the Internet.

Speaker:
Jim Bennett, Senior Cloud Advocate, Microsoft
Jim does things with IoT and Azure in the Developer Relations team at Microsoft, mainly creating content for students and faculty to help them be successful with Microsoft technologies. He’s British, so sounds way smarter than he actually is, and is happy he moved to Redmond in time to be locked down at home and not see the office he came to work in, or the places he wanted to visit. In the past he’s lived in 4 continents working as a developer in the mobile, desktop, and scientific space. He also hates cats, but has an 8 year old daughter who loves cats, so he has 2 cats.
