Abstract
Techniques are described for managing internet-of-things (IoT) devices, such as managing the storage of data generated by the IoT devices, managing the access, to the data, by users, processes, and/or other entities, managing command and control of the devices, and so forth. In some implementations, an IoT platform is provided for IoT device management, and the IoT platform can be agnostic with respect to providers. For example, the IoT platform may provide one or more common interfaces that enable communications with IoT devices that are manufactured by different device providers. In some implementations, a distributed ledger system (DLS) is employed to facilitate IoT device management. For example, the DLS can act as a gateway and/or overall interface to control access of users, processes, devices, IoT device providers, and/or other entities to the IoT devices and/or to an IoT platform.
