GARMIN watch - ConnectIQ-Watch-IoT - Microsoft Azure Platform
Peter Gamma:
I m looking for a solution for a live-stream from Garmin watches to MATLAB, Python or other Desktop applications. I found the project from Dave Lusty, who works for Microsoft UK.
Here are threads in the GARMIN forum about this subject:

The GARMIN watch - ConnectIQ-Watch-IoT - solutions depends on the Microsoft Azure Platform.
It is possible to get an Azure free account starting with 12 months of free services:

This includes $200 credit to explore any Azure service for 30 days. That's confusing. Has someone experience with the Azure Platform pricing model? What happens after the 30 days of the 12 months of free services period?
Peter Gamma:
Does that mean that after 30 days, outbound data transfers going out of Azure data centers has to be paid for:

?
First 5 GB /Month of outbound data transfer is free.
Is it possible to get more than 5 GB of data transfer per month with a GARMIN watch, e.g. when the watch is running 24 * 7, the way mine does normally?
Peter Gamma:
Does someone understand the following statements from:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/search/?&ef_id=EAIaIQobChMIxNWbwtay5gIVWODtCh2DEAlHEAAYASAAEgJARPD_BwE:G:s&OCID=AID2000121_SEM_oVxkVMom&MarinID=oVxkVMom_369075826040_%2Bazure%20%2Bmicrosoft_b_c__78092043804_kwd-22984673891&lnkd=Google_Azure_Brand&dclid=CJLxn8jWsuYCFWnDuwgd4HUNGQ
What can I do with my free account?
With your Azure free account, you get all of this—and you won’t be charged until you choose to upgrade
12 months of popular free services +
$200 credit to explore any Azure service for 30 days +
Always free 25+ services
?
Peter Gamma:
In the Azure free account FAQ:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/free-account-faq/
There is a long list of features which are free for 12 month, but thery are limited.
I still cannot see it through what that means for my simple GARMIN watch. Are there any limitations which might be critical for a simple GARMIN watch user?

GARMIN watches have heart rate sensors which are little controversial compared to heart rate sensors of other watches, e.g. the heart rate sensors of current Amazfit watches. Reviewers recommended to use an external heart rate sensor for applications with fast movements for Amazfit watches:
What is missing is an interface to use those watches for desktop applications.
