Remarks

For more information, see https://github.com/Azure/azure-iot-sdk-csharp#iot-hub-service-sdk.

This client creates lifetime long instances of HttpClient that are tied to the URI of the IoT hub specified, configure any proxy settings, and connection lease timeout. For that reason, the instances are not static and an application using this client should create and save it for all use. Repeated creation may cause socket exhaustion.
