Microsoft Azure IoT Edge vs. Particle

Deployment of mission critical business support solutions particularly those that support virtual learning and video conferencing environments. This is because they help organisations such as the university to effectively transition to a digitally compliant organisation.

We used in mostly all cases in our company. It is best for beginner users and for getting started for IoT Developers. You can give it to any beginner and they can easily learn in just a few minutes. I can say the best product for the starter projects. Everything is just fab!

• It works even if there is no internet at client location. It will record all the generated data and only send them to cloud storage when there is internet connection.
• It allows you to bring cloud functionality down to Edge location in the form of docker container.
• It also supports two way communication from device to cloud and vice-versa.

• Particle is simple to use and accessible to any user.
• The servers housed in the data center allow us to respond to any problem
• Through the interface the data is analyzed in a very simple way.
• Ideal interface for the exploitation of our devices, computers and mobile phones.
• The interface for iOTs allows us to interact with the system in a few steps.
• It allows, among other things, the display of information calculated from the data collected from different iOTs, in an understandable way.

• Microsoft Azure IoT Edge must support more Azure services for Edge computing.
• Like stream analytics integration with Microsoft Azure IoT Edge. Other services also should be integrated with Microsoft Azure IoT Edge for alerts and notifications.
• Buffering issue needs to be resolved.

• For Advanced programs, a bit complicated to programme.
• Pin Limitations (Photon DevKit).
• Pricing is high compared to others.

I have used other IoT Development Modules like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and others. Most of all starter kit doesn't come with WiFi or Cellular built-in. Arduino is a basic module where you have to add WiFi or Cellular manually in it. Raspberry Pi has WiFi but it cannot be used for small or medium use cases, it can be used in advanced and complex systems building and it is costlier.

• ROI was high, as we were able to impress our clients with POC of Microsoft Azure IoT Edge with our IoT based ERP product.
• We were able to perform our POC for almost free, as there no charges for Azure IoT Edge, only minimal charges for storage.

• It ensures very good results, with recovery of the investment in a short time.
