Azure Device Registry (ADR) is a unified registry projecting assets and devices as Azure resources. ADR creates a single source of truth for asset metadata across Azure, partner, and customer applications running in the cloud or on the edge. ADR streamlines and simplifies end-to-end IoT architectures built on top of widely adopted Azure constructs.

This library follows the new Azure SDK guidelines, and provides many core capabilities:

- Support MSAL.NET, Azure.Identity is out of box for supporting MSAL.NET.
- Support [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) for distributed tracing.
- HTTP pipeline with custom policies.
- Better error-handling.
- Support uniform telemetry across all languages.
