Devices work on their own.

But once devices are deployed, teams still need infrastructure for provisioning, messaging, telemetry pipelines, dashboards, and firmware updates.

- device identity and authentication

- secure provisioning and bootstrap

- messaging and telemetry pipelines

- dashboards and remote command control

- firmware lifecycle and OTA updates

IoTBackend Cloud makes them manageable.

Monitor device status, ingest telemetry and events, send commands, and manage firmware updates through one backend platform.

Platform Capabilities

Everything required to connect, manage, and scale your devices.

Secure Device Provisioning

Bootstrap devices with one-time tokens, issue per-device MQTT credentials, and restrict access with device-scoped topics and OTA protection.

Telemetry & Event Pipeline

Collect device telemetry and operational events in real time for monitoring, logging, and automation workflows.

OTA Firmware Updates

Deploy firmware updates remotely, track versions, and manage the full firmware lifecycle.

Device Fleet Dashboard

Monitor device status, telemetry, firmware versions, and activity across your entire fleet.

Command and Control

Send commands to devices and track execution through logs and device-generated events.

API-Ready Platform

Integrate with external dashboards, services, and automation through a flexible API layer.

How it works

Firmware

Start with firmware that includes your device setup.

Bootstrap

The device receives secure access for its first connection.

Connect

Devices connect, send data, and receive events in the cloud.

Operate

Monitor health, control devices, and review activity.

Update

Deliver firmware updates remotely and track progress.

Built for developers

Integrate with your firmware using simple methods for telemetry, events, and command handling.

device.sendTelemetry({
  "temp": "24.7",
});

device.onCommand((cmd) => {
  // handle command
});
