STMicroelectronics' FP-CLD-AZURE1 is an STM32Cube function pack which allows safe connection of an IoT node to Microsoft Azure IoT, the transmission of sensor data, and commands to be received from Azure cloud applications.

It fully supports Azure device management primitives and includes a sample implementation for firmware update over the air (FOTA). By using a mobile device with NFC, a Wi-Fi connectivity link is easily configured.

This software, together with the suggested combination of STM32 and ST devices, can be used for example to develop sensor-to-cloud applications for a broad range of use cases, such as smart home or smart industry.

The software runs on the STM32 microcontroller and includes drivers for the Wi-Fi connectivity, dynamic NFC/RFID tag, and motion and environmental sensors.
