You have an Azure IoT solution that includes a standard tier Azure IoT hub and an IoT device.
The device sends one 100-KB device-to-cloud message every hour.
You need to calculate the total daily message consumption of the device.
What is the total daily message consumption of the device?
A. 24
B. 600
C. 2,400
D. 4,800
Correct Answer: B
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
100 KB * 24 is around 2,400 bytes.
The 100 KB message is divided into 4 KB blocks, and it is billed for 25 messages. 25 times 24 is 600
Note: The maximum message size for messages sent from a device to the cloud is 256 KB. These messages are metered in 4 KB blocks for the paid tiers so for instance if the device sends a 16 KB message via the paid tiers it will be billed as 4 messages.
