The Most Impactful IoT Announcement From Microsoft Build 2019

CEO Satya Nadella kicked off the event with a keynote covering updates on a wide range of topics from Windows and collaboration to Azure cloud services to HoloLens and Xbox technologies. However, when it comes to IoT, one announcement stood out because it directly addresses a challenge that hampers every IoT project and that the industry has been wrangling with for some time. The new initiative is called IoT Plug and Play, and Microsoft hopes that developers will adopt this standard as a universal interface for connecting devices.
