M365Day – Power BI: Real Time streaming information from Sensors

Yesterday (06.11.2020) I participated as speaker in “Microsoft 365 Day”. It was an online event. I hope that we can come back to talk directly. I missed the Face2Face event…

During this event, I explain how we can create in easy way our prototype with Raspberry and Grove PI and how we can stream in real time all values from sensors and show in a live telemetry dashboard. We choose Power BI for this job.

For all boring and configuration part, you can see this good article from Microsoft: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/iot-hub/iot-hub-live-data-visualization-in-power-bi

Here there are all parts related with Azure configuration: IOT Hub, Stream Analytics and Power BI.

You can see how Stream Analytics works. we can use different type of information as source, send to IOT Hub and process with Stream Analytics. All processed data can have as destination an Azure Service Bus, a Cosmos DB, SQL Server db, etc.

After the configuration, we can start to send in streaming all values . We decide to use Python:

In the next days I will publish the source code on my GITHUB also
