Signs of NETMF life at Microsoft. Well, not of the NETMF team, but of the Azure Service Bus team. One step closer to usable Azure connectivity from NETMF.
I should have mentioned that today there are basically three ways to access Azure from a device: WCF (which is a massive machinery and Microsoft proprietary, ill suited for NETMF), via REST API over HTTPS (requires SSL), and AMQP over SSL. While I don’t see major benefits in turning away from REST with HTTP (or CoAP as a compressed form of HTTP) for most applications, it’s still good to see this new library, as Microsoft appears to push AMQP quite a bit nowadays.
