Abstract

In one example of the technology, a mapping is established between: IoT devices that are tenants of an IoT support service, and tenants of a first third-party cloud service. On the IoT support service, device twins are stored, such that each device twin corresponds to a corresponding IoT device, and such that each device twins includes at least a first section that includes properties of the corresponding IoT device, and a second section that includes properties associated with the first third-party cloud service. The IoT support service is used to invoke a first method associated with at least one IoT device based on metadata in at least one corresponding device twin. The first method is associated with the first third-party cloud service.
