devkit. For more information on these experiences, please reference the prototyping
documentation.

Project Santa Cruz onboarding
Welcome to Project Santa Cruz! Prior to getting started with the Santa Cruz devkit, please
complete the onboarding as described herein. During onboarding, you will:
• create an IoT Hub within your Azure account and connect it to Project Santa Cruz
• enable Device Provisioning Service (DPS), Azure Device Update (ADU), and Automatic
Import Update (AIU) within your IoT Hub
Please note that it may take up to two business days to process your request to access the
onboarding portal.
Why is onboarding important?
An IoT Hub is required for working with the Project Santa Cruz devkit. In addition, the onboarding
portal is currently the only location where you may create an IoT Hub with ADU enabled. ADU
allows you to perform over-the-air (OTA) updates from within the Azure portal--a feature we
highly recommend.
Onboarding also allows for easy enablement of DPS and AIU, both recommended features. DPS
enables zero-touch provisioning of devices, and AIU will automatically upload new device updates
to your ADU account.
