Hello @AhmedAssad-8581,

this question overlaps with another MS Learn question regarding IoT Central and the Azure IoT accelerators.

Please take a look at the Azure IoT Reference architecture and try several of the MS Learn modules.

There is over 30 hours of training material available, just about Azure IoT.

This will give you the foundation to design your own IoT solution on.

I have passed all IoT learning paths, but I mention to trusted sequent steps to implement real sys not for prototype

And thank u for support

@AhmedAssad-8581 in that case you need to have the 'make or buy' decision.

If you have the resources to build a platform yourself, start with the already mentioned IoT reference architecture.

Otherwise, buy a solution like IoT Central.

At least, pick a few (max 3) different usecases within your company which should lead to profit (or at least less costs).

If these can be turned in a Proof of Value (PoV). Scale these up to Pilot or even (pre-)production.

Do not try to solve everything in one blow. The investments made are hard to relate to the profit made and in the end everybody thinks IoT only cost money instead of being an enabler :-)

Ahmed, Sander is giving you the best advice. I begin most of my solution design work with the reference architecture and then adjust it based on the use case. But like any architecture built on Azure, you'll want to follow the proven practices you find in the Azure Architecture Center - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/
