Abstract:
Disclosed are various examples for Internet of Things (IoT) device discovery and deployment. In some embodiments, a device identifier is received from an IoT device. The IoT device is determined, based on the device identifier, to be associated with a device account with a management service. An enrollment of the IoT device is performed. A capabilities declaration is received from the IoT device. IoT device instructions are determined based on the capabilities declaration. IoT device instructions are transmitted to the IoT device, causing it to perform a capability specified in the capabilities declaration.
