You have a Standard tier Azure IoT hub and a fleet of IoT devices.
The devices connect to the IoT hub by using either Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) or Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP).
You need to send data to the IoT devices and each device must respond. Each device will require three minutes to process the data and respond.
Solution: You use cloud-to-device messages and watch the cloud-to-device feedback endpoint for successful acknowledgement.
Does this meet the goal?
IoT Hub provides three options for device apps to expose functionality to a back-end app:
Twin's desired properties for long-running commands intended to put the device into a certain desired state. For example, set the telemetry send interval to 30 minutes.
Direct methods for communications that require immediate confirmation of the result. Direct methods are often used for interactive control of devices such as turning on a fan.
Cloud-to-device messages for one-way notifications to the device app.
