Azure Digital Twins

Azure Digital Twins is an Internet of Things (IoT) platform that enables users to create a digital representation of real-world things, places, business processes, and people. The solution aims to provide insights that help drive better products, optimize operations and costs, and create breakthrough customer experiences.

Azure Digital Twins is a platform as a service (PaaS) offering that enables the creation of knowledge graphs based on digital models of entire environments. These environments could be buildings, factories, farms, energy networks, railways, stadiums, and more—even entire cities.

Features:

• Open modeling language to create custom domain models of any connected environment using Digital Twins Definition Language.
• Live execution environment to bring digital twins to life in a live graph representation.
• Input from IoT and business systems to connect assets, including IoT devices, using Azure IoT Hub, Logic Apps, and REST APIs.
• Output twin change events to Azure Data Explorer, Azure Synapse Analytics, Event Hubs and other downstream services

The solution can be used to model and create digital representations of connected environments with an open modeling language. Model buildings, factories, farms, energy networks, railways, stadiums—even entire cities. Bring these digital twins to life with a live execution environment that historizes twin changes over time. Unlock actionable insights into the behavior of modeled environments via powerful query APIs, and integrates with Azure data analytics.
