I(o)T takes two! Meet Azure Digital Twins
summary
Announces Azure Digital Twins v2 as a REST API platform with open modeling via DTDL (JSON‑LD) and C# SDK support; demonstrates a concrete house model (house → floors → rooms → sensors), programmatic creation of twins and relationships, and a working pipeline: device simulator → IoT Hub → Event Grid → Azure Functions calls the Digital Twins API to update twin properties, with routes to Event Hub/Time Series Insights for visualization. Notes improved scaling over v1 and that IoT Hub currently requires external compute to push updates.
