The Azure Certified Device program is your one stop for easily differentiating, promoting, and finding IoT devices built to run on Azure. From intelligent cameras to connected sensors to edge infrastructure, learn how this enhanced IoT device certification program can help you save valuable time.
Benefits of certified IoT devices
Easily differentiate your IoT device capabilities and gain access to a worldwide audience looking to reliably purchase devices built to run on Azure. Use the Azure Certified Device Catalog to increase product visibility and connect with customers by certifying your device.
Confidently find and purchase IoT devices built to run on Azure, knowing they meet specific capabilities. Easily search and find the right certified device for your IoT solution among a worldwide community of device builders on the Azure Certified Device Catalog.
Azure Certified Device
Azure Certified Device certification validates that a device can connect with Azure IoT Hub and securely provision through the Device Provisioning Service (DPS). This certification reflects a device's functionality and interoperability, which are a necessary baseline for more advanced certifications.
IoT Plug and Play
IoT Plug and Play certification, an incremental certification beyond the baseline Azure Certified Device certification, validates Digital Twin Definition Language version 2 (DTDL) and interaction based on your device model. It enables a seamless device-to-cloud integration experience and enables hardware partners to build devices that can seamlessly integrate without the need to write custom code.
Edge Managed
Edge Managed certification, an incremental certification beyond the baseline Azure Certified Device certification, focuses on device management standards for Azure connected devices. Today, this certification program focuses on Edge runtime compatibility for module deployment and management though will continue to grow in the future with additional customer manageability needs.
