Welcome to #JulyOT! All throughout the month of July the IoT teams at Microsoft are inviting you to join us in learning all about this fast growing and popular technology. You can read more about #JulyOT and catch all our great resources at https://aka.ms/JulyOT.

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, Regional Cloud Advocate, Microsoft
Jim is a Regional Cloud Advocate focusing on building out and skilling communities in the Pacific North West, with a focus on the Microsoft Reactor in Redmond, Washington. 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's spoken at conferences and events all around the globe, organized meetup groups and communities, and written a book on mobile development.
