Microsoft announces windows 10 iot core services, all the details

Microsoft has also attended Computex 2018 to show the world its news, the Redmond company has announced a new version of Windows 10 IoT Core Services. It is a paid version of this operating system with greater support and other advantages.

Windows 10 IoT Core Services offers 10-year support and increased stability

Devices equipped with Windows 10 IoT Core Services will receive 10 years of support and will not receive feature updates. A feature that will allow them to focus on stability and security. Microsoft has decided that stability and security are more important in this type of product than news, something we agree on, but 10 years is a long time.

Another new feature in this version is a new Device Update Center, which allows you to control, create and customize device updates. These new updates will also be distributed through Windows Update, giving the user the option of evaluating both update options.

We continue with Device Health Attestation, a new option that allows the user to increase the security level to allow evaluating the security of the device. This feature can be combined with Azure IoT Device Management to help recommend solutions. Microsoft has confirmed that a previous version will be available in July, with general availability later this year.

This is a new effort by Microsoft to increase the presence of Windows 10 in all types of devices, since the company's goal since its launch has been to create a unique ecosystem, a very ambitious goal.
