Today's episode features a new collaboration project, the audio recording of a LinkedIn Live Video Broadcast that a colleague and I created, co-host Ali Mazaheri, the director of the Microsoft Technology Center in Irvine. Simply Tech Live is a LIVE broadcast, focusing on the evolving landscape of technology through the lens of Microsoft focus areas, our partner ecosystem, and our customers.
"Invincible Expresso: A connected experience with Azure Sphere", features Phil Heine from Avnet. Phil is currently the director of Global Business Development at Avnet, where's has spent over 17 years of his career in roles ranging from engineering, sales, business development, and now product management. Avnet is a global distributor, solution provider, designer, and engineering firm with more than 15,000 employees in over 140 countries worldwide. Their vertical segments include everything from electronics manufacturing and consumer devices, all the way to healthcare and energy. Avnet also became the sole distributor of Azure Sphere just over a year ago, and businesses are taking full advantage of the secure IoT environment that it enables. You'll quickly understand why we call this expresso invincible, but it's founded on capabilities that Azure Sphere enhances. Azure Sphere, is a micro controller unit, or MCU, with built in security and high performance operability right on the chip, including a MSFT operating system, as well as a security service that is designed to guard it's connected ecosystem from emerging threats.
Big topics we cover in today the discussion:
-A live demo (for those who watched live or on demand), of Azure Sphere and the connected coffee experience
-What differentiates Azure Sphere from ordinary microcontrollers in IoT solutions: the secured MCU, the secured operating system, and the included security service
-The importance of a strong security profile, and why device isolation from the cloud can protect against incoming threats, and asset monitoring and predictive maintenance use cases that benefit
-Guidance for businesses who are implementing IoT solutions, but have security concerns do to the complexity of building a secure device
